Obama's record: Weak on Bipartisanship

Sen. Barack Obama has made a big deal about his ability to unite people, to reach across the aisle and work with Republicans, to bring the nation together.

Those words sure sound nice, but the reality is that Obama has one of the most partisan voting records during his brief time in Congress.

In 2007, Obama Voted With The Democrat Party 97 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, http://www.cq.com, Accessed 3/3/08)

In 2006, Obama Voted With The Democrat Party 96 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, http://www.cq.com, Accessed 1/27/08)

In 2005, Obama Voted With The Democrat Party 97 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, http://www.cq.com, Accessed 1/27/08)

Obama's rhetoric doesn't match the reality.

McCain is not as conservative as I would like. However, he has a long standing record of 'reaching across the aisle' over his long and distinguished career. Your article and links correctly show that Obama is a party line guy. McCain has to figure out a way to take off that luster. His recent use of humor may be just what is needed.
