47. At some point, obama's record HAS to be his own
obama supporters have NO difficulty pointing to his "accomplishments" in the Illinois Senate and calling them HIS own--when there is enough information out there that shows he had a kingmaker that assigned him to pending legislation so that he could take the credit.
However, whenever he flubs HIS own Senate record--the fingers start pointing at anyone standing around saying "see, they did it to".
My word to those supporters...hold your candidates feet to the fire. You are the ones with the great expectations from this man...force him to do the right thing. If he does the right thing enough times...then perhaps he might just pick up a few of the supporters who really don't see him different than what we already have. Your enabling of him does not make things better.
