Apparently Sen. George Voinovich isn’t a big fan of Barack Obama. In a conference call earlier today Voinovich had the following strong words (as quoted from CNN) about Obama’s foreign policy experience.

“He hasn’t any experience in foreign policy. Give me a break,” Voinovich said of his colleague from Illinois, who also serves on the Foreign Relations Committee.

Many people think it would be good to have “somebody that was of his background” become president, Voinovich said, because it would be a “good message in terms of culture.”

But Voinovich warned “things are very fragile in this world” and “we’re pinned down all over the place. It’s not going to be an easy deal for our next president to come in and deal with these problems.

“Between now and the election there are going to be many things that are going to happen in this country that will have an influence on people’s choice in terms of who the next president will be,’ Voinovich said.

Of course, Voinovich may just be jealous that his political career has already peaked.
