Wow. I am suprised there are so many people voting for McCain here. The general consesus is no body hates McCain, but most don't love him. That would be because he is a moderate which means he is not polarizing (like Bush).

Obama on the other hand is the most Liberal senator in the Senate, therefor conservatives are more appaulled by him. Conservatives would not like Hilary, but they could swallow it... There is no way conservatives could swallow Obama. Not with his radical views on the Economy and Abortion and Education and Healthcare and the such.

I would believe that if there was actually evidence to support that claim. Not that he's a radical, but that he scares away conservative voters. He's doing very well in some red states.

Anyways, the world economy is in shambles. Obama's popularity worldwide should at least assist in the U.S. working with countries worldwide, whether with trading or providing goods or aid. I'm not worried about Obama's energy policies since he'll likely change his mind when everyone realizes that ethanol is a terrible idea (if they haven't already).

I hope the National Journal is good enough.... I learned my lesson about the NT Post... I just google Most Liberal Senators and this is the first to pop up....

Yes Obama is popular WW, but would you believe me if I told you McCain is actually pretty popular. I think it is more of a respect thing, but a WHOLE heck better than Bush. But yes I would say Obama is more popular in Europe than McCain... Heck i would not be suprised if he was more popular in Europe than he is in the USA. Not saying he is, just would not suprise me. Obama's views are actually somewhat mainstream in Europe. They are radical in the USA, that is why he does not go into too much detail. Thus the reason he said that If Abortion is right or wrong is above his paygrade. Obama is so liberal he would not got elected if he did not have such a good speaking presence (and weak opponent for IL senate- Allan Keyes... enough said)
