Obama Vs. McCain Voting Record

This was a fantastic comparison of the 2 senators voting records, with many surprising votes by McCain when compared to his campaign messaging. The one improvement I would have liked to see is more detail in the Vote Question section for each motion/amendment/bill.

Just the Facts

In an election year where neutral and non-partisan news reporting seems to be dead, we all need facts, not more opinions based on personal choice. Start here with Barack Obama vs. John McCain - Side by Side Senate Voting Record for Easy Comparison and make an informed decision based on what has already been done, not what each candidate is promising now. I see our election system as the world's most expensive audition for actors, all playing a role in order to convince you they can pull off the performance of a lifetime. Once in office, they usually fall back to what they have done in the past which is why this book is the most valuable tool you can have at your disposal. We all hear the almost evangelical speeches, the screaming crowds, the promises and the stories of past torture and courage, now read what they do when push comes to shove and they are choosing for all of us. Remember, the best predictor of future behavior is past actions. Pay attention this year, it's more important than ever to make a choice based on education, not emotions. Choosing our president involves a lot more than promises,hope,or dancing ability. It involves using your brain and choosing what is right, not what "feels" right.
