Obama presented himself as being more conservative then McCain.
People didn't WANT to know the truth of Obama and the media hid it from them, but the information is and was out there for any who took the time to do the research. No one should vote without doing their research first, but in this case the media was in lust with The O and they were determined to anoint him.
The thing is we all are going to pay the price for that tingle up Chris Matthews leg. We have become the bedazzler, American Idol, country and the lesson for this is going to be swift and very painful.
