Anyone who takes time to research voting since President Bush took office will see that Biden; and from 2006 Obama, either voted with the President or cast the "present" no-vote a majority of the time. This is an invalid argument against Senator McCain.
but obama cant even make his mind up to vote. but hey he knows how to say present, i think they taught us that in 1st grade doing roll call...
At least McCain stood up and voted. Obama, with his grade school vote of "present" just doesn't fly. I live in IL and had never heard of this man until the Dem. convention 8 yrs. ago and then not again until he started running for this office so he wasn't really a go-getter in this state. People need to open their eyes and not be swayed by the fact that he is a smooth talker dishing out a lot of lip service appealing to who he is talking to at the time. He spent YEARS sitting in a church that preached hatred for white people and America. At any time Obama could have gotten up at left that church. Instead, he CHOSE to stay there. He probably feels the same way I'm sure as was confirmed by the slip up of his wife. He only left because of pressure by the media. People have very short memories. Think about having someone like this for your president.

The 90% was only over the course of 2007, not 8 years. If you look at other years, it gets much lower (sometimes even in the 60's). Furthermore, if you look at the votes that were cast in 2007, the only one that really was a major bipartisan issue was the war. We know where he stood on that. I wish he would have voted with the party more, but the truth is, he didn't.
I find it interesting that all anyone does blurt out the same food that their associated politician feeds them...I keep hearing the same lines that these politicians have conjured up - no one thinks for themselves.
