So much for being the Anti-McCain, Anti-establishment candidate.
More than anything, this issue tells me what a person’s real stance is on the rule of law, willingness to kiss up to the media and jump through the establishment hoops, and the importance of truthfulness.
At this point I have a hard time believing that anybody believes Obama’s records are in order because they haven’t heard otherwise - unless that person ONLY listens to the network news, in which case they can’t be trusted for that reason alone. If they believe his records are in order it is most likely because they are wilfully refusing to hear the facts of the case. And that also is reason to distrust them.
So this issue is a pretty good litmus test of a person’s character, I think. The way they respond to the facts when they are presented says a lot about their epistemology and earnestness also.
