Anyway, he was a harvard grad, and state and federal senator. Beats godfathers pizza with me

What was his record as both? Especially his schooling!

We all know he didn't do anything as a Senator.

It's time for a relative unknown because the knowns are lackluster candidates.

These days, being a Senator isn't anything to be proud of.

"I was a part of a legislative body with a 17% approval rating. Clearly I am qualified"

To get elected, all you have to do is, look good speak well and tell a lot of lies.

As a Senator, what exactly did he do or vote on?

He's leading the entire field to include Romney. Is there a whiter candidate than Romney? And how about the two females between them? You gotta go back three front runners just to get to a white male. Democrats ever gonna emerge from the dark ages?

We know he DIDN'T vote at least 130 times. Voting "present" means you did not do you homework and aren't qualified to vote yes or no on the legislation.
