^ Obama smokes (or he did until recently) so I imagine that would be a risk factor.
^^I know TNR has an ideological bent, but even if they are partial to the left they can point out why that particular ranking scale is not accurate. I know Obama is a liberal. I believe he has asserted as much. I simply find it asinine when conservatives say Obama was THE most liberal senator. It simply is not true. You may say he is an ardent liberal, but he is not THE most liberal.
