Obama Losing Voters Over FISA Support

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the sure-doesn't-help-my-opinion-of-him dept.

Corrupt writes "I've admired Obama, but I never confused him with a genuine progressive leader. Today I don't admire him at all. His collapse on FISA is unforgivable. The only thing Obama has going for him this week is that McCain is matching him misstep for misstep."
