Did you guys ever go by that site John MCCain said to go by the Center Against Government Waste? (http://www.cagw.org/site/PageServer?pagename=reports_earmarks - broken link)
Tom Schatz, CAGW: There is a long track record in both cases, some of which goes to Senator Obama in the Illinois Legislature. We do not analyze the states. But just on the votes in 2007, Senator Obama voted correctly only 10% of the time, and Senator McCain voted 11 out of the 35 times. He did vote correctly every time. His lifetime rating 88% is the sixth-highest in the Senate. Senator Obama’s lifetime rating is 18% in the years that he has been a Senator. So there is a vast difference on the question of spending and taxes and those results are consistent with other analyses and organizations that track all of these various votes. Jarrett: Is Obama at the bottom? Schatz: He is not quite at that the bottom. Actually, Senator Biden is at the bottom. He has a zero rating in 2007. But Senator Obama is pretty close at 10%. Jarrett: So Biden would be the most wasteful in your judgment, and again you are a non-partisan group, would be the most wasteful Senator?
The more I see of the debate and Obama's pathetic hand-waving, interupting and stuttering, the more I see how well Mac did. He really flogged him on FP/NS. Obama was out of his league and that is just what the electorate has been saying for months on the CIC experience test.
We must have watched a different debate. McCain's old man rant was unbearable while Obama was clear, intelligent, and clearly more presidential.
I can't wait for your analysis of Biden/Palin debate.
Oh, there is! Ever since the whole equal rights for women thing, the female focus has shifted from fighting the men to fighting their fellow woman.
