The list could easily go on. The point is that Obama's positions are far, far more extreme than anything McCain has done in his campaign. The reality is that Obama will fundamentally change this country toward a European socialism model and that is not what most Americans would consider to be moderate.

So then, you believe the polls are wrong and that McCain will win on 4 November.

Other than the fact that isn't his plan, you have a point.

"- Advocacy of partial birth abortion, or worse, allowing children resulting from botched abortions to just die from a lack of medical attention"

Other than the fact that isn't his plan, you have a point.

"- Advocacy of redistribution of wealth in America, where capitalism has been the foundational premise for 300 years;"

Other than the fact that isn't his plan, you have a point.

And so on.

- Advocacy of redistribution of wealth in America, where capitalism has been the foundational premise for 300 years;

- Support for judicial activism which includes a litmus test for abortion rights;

- Taking money from successful businesses to give to those who haven't earned it;

- The desire to ban handguns in direct opposition to the 2nd Amendment.


These are lies or at best exaggerations...progressive taxation of a profitable corporation or individual is not "redistribution of wealth"...same for the rest of the extreme rush-isms on your list...
