Who Will Unify?

Let's look at the facts, Barack Obama has voted with his party 97% of the time, his idea of unity isn't reachng across party lines in the way that McCain has, but instead barreling democratic ideas down the throats of conservatives. McCain has a proven track record of reaching across the aisle and working with the likes of Lieberman, Feingold and Kennedy, Obama has a track record of voting for whatever his party wants. If I hear the word unity in association with the ultra partisan Obama again I may vomit.

Let's take a look at what the former VP candidate from the democratic party has to say:

"Sen. Obama is a gifted and eloquent young man who can do great things for our country in the years ahead," Lieberman said in prepared remarks. "But eloquence is no substitute for a record — not in these tough times."


The Connecticut lawmaker, who sought the Democratic presidential nomination in 2004, argued that Obama has not reached across party lines to achieve anything of significance and has been unwilling to take on Democratic interest groups.


In a clear appeal for backers of Obama's former rival Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, Lieberman said, "Contrast that to John McCain's record, or the record of the last Democratic president, Bill Clinton, who stood up to some of those same Democratic interest groups and worked with Republicans to get important things done like welfare reform, free trade agreements, and a balanced budget."
