The statistic varies with the one doing the quoting, but it's never 100%. That means that, given sufficient reason, McCain will go against his party leaders. His running mate has also demonstrated a willingness to go against the party. That is a quality I look for in an office seeker. I don't want someone whose strings are pulled by the party. I want someone who is willing to do what he or she thinks is right, no matter which side favors it. I want somebody with some *guts.* All I've heard about Obama's voting record is that it's the most liberal * in the Senate. No specific statistics. Can anybody supply statistics of occasions where Obama has voted against the party line? Can he think for himself, or is he just a party puppet?
