is what has generated such heat from their supporters. The choices seem to be based more on personality or subjective issues rather than policy, since each is a fairly moderate candidate and not apt to revolutionize anything. There just isn't that much of a difference between them policy wise, which is a shame since the left is yet again being ignored.
Though I'm not really a supporter of either, I tilt towards Obama by an inkling because of Clinton's votes on IWR and Kyl-Lieberman. However, those votes don't put me squarely in Obama's corner just because he failed to vote either way on Kyl and I have no doubt that if he had been in the Senate in 2002 that he also would have voted for the IWR. Every single Senator with any presidential ambitions voted for the damn thing, and since a liberal eyes wide open John Kerry voted for it, no one will ever be able to convince me that Obama would not as well. Just my opinion, not trying to convince anyone.
