Obama has 143 days in the Senate. That could be a plus.

Cite one major accomplishment or decision made by McCain.

McCain has a 30-year track record, Obama, has three years. Who the hell do you think you're fooling? McCain's accomplishments to date: 4th from the bottom of his grad. class, lost 5 planes before becoming a POW, got elected to the Senate from a small state with the millions of his wife backing him up. There is nothing in that record that suggests greatness. I am sorry he was a POW but again that should not insure your future except in a nation that goes ga ga over the military. Meanwhile, Obama is a true horatio alger story.......pulling himself up by the bootstraps.....graduating magna cum laude from Harvard, foresaking a lucrative law career to organize the poor, running for state senate and winning with little money and backing; becoming a millionaire by writing books; running for the US Senate and winning with only a little more money and backing, and running for the presidency with one of the best run campaigns seen in decades. Now that's a real track record! I suspect if Obama were white, he would be up by 15 points. And even though he is black, a very small minority in this country, he is ahead of McCain, a white man. Truly impressive! You need to stop your whining and moaning......you're making an ass of yourself.
