What issues are you comparing? Just curious, because he is very deft with language, trying to preserve any course of action. Reading him is akin to reading some of the most clever witnesses you'll ever find. He would be a difficult person to cross examine as pinning him down is not easy.

A centrist would be nice for once, none were running. McCain stood for nothing as far as I can see, and Obama stands for every liberal's wish list. The only consolation my liberal friends offer me, "he won't be able to get everything he wants," offers me little consolation. I feel like the homeowner being tied up by a bunch of robbers leaving the home with the silverware, money, guns and children for ransom, whose wife leans over and says, "don't worry honey, they can't carry the piano."
