This is the kind of low-risk issue that liberals can promote to make them look 'moderate.'
Add in Obama's pleasant demeanor and he will hoodwink many people. But when you examine his record, you find that on issue after issue Obama is a straight-down-the-line left-winger.
Just to prove my point, here are some of Obama's ratings from various interest groups:
Planned Parenthood - 100
Illinois Federation for Right to Life - 0
National Taxpayers of Illinois - 0
Illinois Environmental Council - 100
NOW - endorsed candidate
NRA - F
Citizens for Handgun Control - A
See what I mean?
