I find it extremely ironic that many of those who claimed that Bush was the worst president in history claim that Obama is possibly the greatest thing to ever happen. If it is policy you are concerned with, then Obama is simply more of the same. More spending, more deficit, more foreign involvement, more government intervention, and more government regulation. Only a true partisan would claim that Obama represented change as the only change is the party he's from.

31. Jim Gilmore (withdrawn) (13%)
32. Stephen Colbert (campaign halted) (13%)
33. Duncan Hunter (withdrawn, endorsed Huckabee) (10%)

Funny thing is that I would never vote for Kucinich, Nader or McKinney -- people who I'm supposedly close to politically -- while I would strongly consider voting for Hagel.

Part of the problem might be that I voted "neither" on a lot of hot-button issues, while the few issues I indicated a strong, clear position on are traditional-but-sideshow Dem positions like gay marriage and civil liberties.
