52. What this post shows...
...to me, is that there are legitimate reasons to be skeptical of Obama, and concernes about what he would do if elected. However, I don't think it's possible for any person to run for president and not have question marks or raise legitimate concerns.

If you look at any candidate in a vacuum and emphasize the negatives then any candidate looks bad. However, if you line them up and look at each candidate relative to the others then the results change. I don't think Obama is a dream candidate by any means, but I think he is better than the alternatives.
