    talk about the record, go back and look at the races Obama ran in Illinois. How he actually won them. Of course BHO seems to have lost his own records of the time he was in the Illinois senate. Check out his record on how he actually represented the people of Illinois.= There you go again talking about his words, look at his actual votes after going to washington. It didn't take a lot of courage for an unknown state senator to "talk" about opposing the war. He could depend on the press to forget it if he was wrong, and stupid people like you to read and believe only the parts they want to believe as facts.
