Can you name a liberal thought or cause in the last 20 years that Obama has not embraced and put into his platform? Living Wage. Universal Healthcare. Withdraw from Iraq. Tax the rich. College tuition for everyone. George W. Bush—bad!! McCain is W’s third term. And this is the non-partisan guy? My name is Barack Obama, and if you agree with everything I say, there will be no partisanship. Barack didn't pick Hillary because he was afraid of her and Bill. Meanwhile, Palin is challenging HER party. Show me where Barack has challenged anything HIS party stands for. And don't give me his universal healthcare policy is a little different than Hillary's was.

Check into her work with lobbiests to bring home the bacon to her little town in Alaska. Other than a few nice words, she's definitely no maverick - unless Ted Steves is also a maverick? Raising taxes on the oil companies? So, let me get this straight, that's a good idea when it comes from Palin, but a bad idea when it comes from Obama? Now... go spin your answer! No, definitely not.
