A lot of people say so, but I wouldn't say he's as liberal as Dennis Kucinich.
Besides, talking liberal and being liberal are 2 different things. Obama seems like an empty suit to me.
Phred, I always saw Clinton as kind of on the conservative side for being a dem. Always seemed to me like she was trying to show that she had a set of testicles as big as any other guy running for Prez.

It has been determined from his voting record that he's the most liberal senator there. Even whackjob Kucinich doesn't vote as consistently Libbie as Obama.
Now, it could very well be that his voting record doesn't reflect the "inner Obama", but it is an objective and verifiable metric by which to determine - from his actions - his Liberalness.

He may be the most liberal senator, but Dennis is in the House, so it's a more difficult comparison. I probably shouldn't have chosen that comparison, but I was just looking in terms of his views on healthcare and the fact that Kuccinich introduced articles of impeachment against the bush admin.
Anyways, I think Obama's going to end up taking this election despite backing down from McCain. Bush has thouroughly fucked this country in every possible orifice over the last 8 years. McCain has a major wall to overcome.

doesn't matter if he's liberal or conservative or a drooling moron (Hi Bush! What are you doing here?), once he's there, anything he says will be written beforehand. A dead horse could do the presidents job, but no one would vote for a dead horse.

Don't be too sure of that. Did you ever see the episode of the Awful Truth where Michael Moore ran a ficus tree against a congressman? Voters had to write the tree in and votes that were counted showed a 4-1 lead of the ficus over the congressman. Hell, I'd vote for a tree over quite a few congressmen.
It's pretty funny. The videos are up on youtube.
