state senator and what he's actually accomplished while in the US Senate. Seems he has written two autobiographies and zero pieces of legislation. He might also be afraid of going on the record on too many things. He was able to vote "present" on many issues. What a leader!

Not much. Part of why I call him the Empty O. :-)

Since McCain's poor class rank at the Naval Academy is public knowledge, I'm curious whether it is true that Obama flunked out of Occidental. If not, why doesn't the campaign explain the circumstances around his exit from Occidental and how he ended up at Columbia. It's a resume gap.

The fact that Obama's campaign places such an emphasis on his background as a Community Organizer is why one has to wonder WHY? It was long ago.... Problem is his most recent experience was in the last 5 years... He has been in the US Senate for the last 3 years...but he has been running for President for 2 of those years. That may be why he says he's managed (someone else's money) millions for his campaign and has 2,500 people working on the campaign.... He's practicing BIG government....<ggg>
