"Change his mind"? I would suggest you review Obama's history to get a better idea of this empty suit. Obama got elected in Chicago running on hate, the hate against white America. His associations with questionable characters was important to maintain or elevate his persona that he was the man to run against white America, save the slaves all over again, as Obama said it himself: "white man's greed vs a world in need". Michelle Obama's "first time I've been proud of my country" is another piece that supports that opinion. Now all of a sudden Obama needs the America he ran against, so he throws Reverend Wright under the bus, his grandmother, and soon to be Ayers if the 90% democrat media will print it. How do you feel supporting a man that ran a platform of hate based upon YOU being the problem? I don't think Obama has changed, his roots continue to surface, his flipflops are nothing more than lies, and he couldn't pass an FBI employment application. You should vote for Axelrod, that's your candidate.

>> He changed his mind. Is McCain allowed to change his mind? Anyone can change his/her mind. The question is whether it there is a good reason for it, or whether it happened as a result of political expediency. Some have argued, for example, that McCain flip flopped on drilling, but the circumstances have changed such that that can properly be characterized as him having changed his mind. In Obama's case, the flip flops are almost 100% about political expediency. The biggest case, IMO, was on Jerusalem, since that is a major foreign policy issue and exemplifies what kind of foreign policy operation we can anticipate from him. They are two different things and are readily distinguishable.
