Wonderful...

Sen. John McCain's record of working with Democrats easily outstrips Sen. Barack Obama's efforts with Republicans, according to an analysis by The Washington Times of their legislative records.
Whether looking at bills they have led on or bills they have signed onto, Mr. McCain has reached across the aisle far more frequently and with more members than Mr. Obama since the latter came to the Senate in 2005.
In fact, by several measures, Mr. McCain has been more likely to team up with Democrats than with members of his own party. Democrats made up 55 percent of his political partners over the last two Congresses, including on the tough issues of campaign finance and global warming. For Mr. Obama, Republicans were only 13 percent of his co-sponsors during his time in the Senate, and he had his biggest bipartisan successes on noncontroversial measures, such as issuing a postage stamp in honor of civil rights icon Rosa Parks.

Then by all means...oblige. I am far from PO'd. Please, Wagner...I beg of you.

Oblige what...you haven't made a point.

Simply state a policy and we could all state position on it.

Your welcome to your opinion but here's the real deal. In all my years on this earth the promises made by politicians during the election process are never kept. Everyone knows that. That's why people are fed up with them and the process.

That's why he is the Maverick, to the disdain of some members of his own party. No argument here.

Granted, I never said they lived up to all their positions. I said that stating policy is how you win elections.

I've given you 20 that you failed to respond to.
