..this all by a ranking put together by the National Journal.

Obama is a liberal. He is wooing independents becuase without them he can't win in the general.

"In the following list, 99 senators^ are assigned liberal scores for their roll-call votes on key economic, social and foreign policy issues during 2006. The scores on each scale are given as percentiles. The composite score measures votes across all three issue areas."
