But I have a problem with his dramatic shift since his Senate career. Its not just the war. He has low career ratings with the League of Conservation voters and the ACLU as well. I don't want someone who changes their views so quickly when its politically expedient. That's what I don't like about Hillary too.

Either he was pretending to be more conservative as a Senator, or he's pretending to be more liberal now, or he doesn't have solidly grounded principles. I think its the first option, but none of them are very appealing.

I also appreciate that Obama could be the first Democratic Party nominee with a history of working in left wing activist movements.
