| 8. We need to check each candidate's voting record with care |

Edited on Sat Dec-01-07 09:38 PM by RFKin2008
Because what they say on the campaign trail often directly contradicts how they voted on the issue in Congress.
In the long run, candidate positions may flip-flop and change, but how they voted is the only thing that's permanent.

| -Clinton voted for the Patriot Act and she voted for the war in Iraq, |
