And I can site pages of legislation, supported by McCain, that fall right in line with a conservative agneda. But I bet you can’t cite pages of legislation that show Obama is better on any issue than McCain is. And since those are the only two candidates that have a chance of winning, I think the decision is quite clear.

You're quite right.
