OK, let's set aside the illegal campaign contributions, the Orwellian "Truth Squads" the cavorting with racists and communists then lying about it, being in the pocket of corrupt lenders and a blinding degree naivete.
Let's look at what Obama promises and what he has actually had an opportunity ot deliver.
THE POST-RACIAL CANDIDATE:
Failure. In fact, ant detractor from Bill Clinton to Geraldine Ferraro to--Joe the Plumber...has been branded a racist.
Instead of healing race divisions as promised in his Jeremiah Apology speech (the one where he said he couldn't disown Wright just before the one where he disowned him) Obama has made race THE defining trait of his campaign.
EDUCATION REFORM:
The Chicago Annenberg Challenge, apart from being co-directed alongside a communist terrorist succeeded in wasting $160 million in the confines of a single city...and not even for all school-aged children in Chicago, only those subjected to screwy leftist indoctrination centers. Imagine the per capita spent for results the CAC's own records say offered no appreciable improvement and multiply it by the federal Dept of Education.
ETHICS:
Don't get me started.
So when people say they're voting for Hope-n-Change they are voting out of ignorance. Far from NOT having a record Obama does have a record and a pretty dismal one at that. People actually have to erase Obama's record and pretend he is the neophyte McCain has wrongly painted him out to be.
