I just did #12-20 on my lunch break

(12) I blame My Early Drug Use on Ethnic Confusion, Was never said
(13) An Ebony Article Moved Me to Run For Office Was never said
(14) A Life Magazine Article Changed My Outlook On life Could be a lie maybe? He is remembering an article he read as a child, could he just not have the right magazine? Does it even really matter in the long run?
(15) I won't Run on a National Ticket in 08 - LIAR, here you are, despite saying live on TV, that you would not have enough experience by then, and you are all about having experience first. Presidential candidates say that. Hillary did as well.
(16) Present Votes Are Common in Illionois - LIAR, they are common for YOU, but not many others have 130 NO VOTES. Was never said
(17) Oops I Misvoted - LIAR, only whent caught by church groups and Democrats did you beg to change your misvote. Misvote? Was never said
(18) I was A Professor Of Law - LIAR, you were a senior lecturer ON LEAVE. See U of Chicago Link above
(19) I Was A Constitutional Lawyer - LIAR, you were a senior lecturer ON LEAVE See U of Chicago Link above
(20) Without Me, There Would Be No Ethics Bill - LIAR, youd didn't write it, introduce it, change it, or create it. Cannot find quote of this anywhere.

Just offhand, your #17 is wrong. He did say he misvoted on something. It was a quote in a news article back when he was in the Illinois state senate. (It was either related to abortion or a criminal justice issue -- I can't remember which but he was the only one who voted the way he did.)

Lets see, gamble on Obama as he gets us out of the war in Iraq or vote for McCan't who guarantees continued occupation in Iraq for possibly 4-100 years, depends on which day you ask him. It went from 100 to 50 to the magic number of "4". Yup, I will take my chances on Obama too. My brain tells me, my conscience tells me and my wallet is screaming for me to vote for Obama. Go Obama go!

Oh please, we take a gamble everytime we cross the street.

Barack Obama is an oppurtunity for America to put its best foot forward, John McCain at very best would a step backwards.

Can you find me the quote? I searched and couldn't find anything, except for its inclusion on this list.

Looks like he's the longshot in the General Election.
Rupert Murdoch doesn't think so!

The founder -- and defender -- of Fox News said he expected Obama to win in a landslide, citing widespread unhappiness with the current administration and his disenchantment with Republican contender John McCain. Murdoch added that after a long career in the Senate, McCain had been forced to compromise too much and doesn’t stand for much. Murdoch even nonchalantly owned up to influencing the New York Post to back Obama in the New York primary.

I don't have time to do it now -- but look in the Chicago papers (or there is a paper that is devoted to Illinois politics). I'm pretty sure I saw it in there. Try googling "voted wrong" and Obama or "voting record".
