I've been concerned by the extreme enthusiasm some friends and  
acquaintances express for Barak Obama.  Certainly he is an immensely  
talented and inspirational orator, but many seem blinded by a  
(perhaps understandable) kind of desperate hope for 'change' and  
'something different.'  Where is the healthy skepticism for which  
Americans were once, long ago known?  Perhaps Obama is the best of  
available choices now, but his voting record shows something much  
less than a 'different' focus.

Yes, the above linked op-ed comes from a member of the Nader  
campaign, but the facts of Obama's legislative decisions remain.
