[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 336190, member: 2189"] AV, I understand the point you make but I doubt either side will make much hay of it as it's a known among both parties that votes will get missed in election season for the WH. If you watch the politicians they will make votes that have national importance or are a good platform for facetime. On the flipside, they will also miss votes that either aren't the national issue or in some case they don't want to go on record concerning that issue or position. Both sides play this game so you might see side areas bring this into play but not much will come out from the actual players themselves. I mean Biden and Dodd were well out of the game a longtime back and they missed as much time as Hillary who's been in a tough battle. Give Hillary credit and she came back and voted on such issues as Kyl-Liberman and went on record much to the dislike of the anti-war/non-interventionist crowd in the democrat party and thus why you saw Sen. Obama get a huge swell of support as many left Hillary in the dust. There is concern among some about what Obama would do in the end as he also missed this vote and it's fair to believe he didn't want to go on record either way. Here was his chance to stand on principle and he did not and this raises doubts in my mind. I like the thought that Obama [SIZE=4]"MIGHT" [/SIZE][SIZE=2]drive a stake to the heart of the globalist empire builders running our domestic and foreign policy but unlike a Ron Paul or Dennis Kuchinich who never fears a vote to go on record to what they believe, Obama IMHO comes up far short and thus if elected may turn out to be another wolf in sheeps clothing and nothing really changes. [/SIZE] [SIZE=2]I know you and I differ in those areas of policy but this is my POV from a policy difference perspective concerning Obama who also who would not vote for Obama because I heard the words of Rev. Wright and I honestly believe in his own way he was telling us that Obama is a fraud and has been from day one! [/SIZE] If you take the moment to listen to Wright beyond his Afro-Centric soundbites that are meat for talk radio, I believe Wright is speaking volumes about Obama that people aren't hearing. JMHO! BTW: Obama's voting record/missed votes Here's one article on it. [URL]http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Barack_Obama:_U.S._presidential_election%2C_2008/Senate_attendance%2C_missed_votes[/URL] A quick search will bring up Hillary, McCain or anyone else for that matter.
