"Image politics and triangulation are why, the very sins that have inflicted us with G.W. Bush.

It's just pandering pure and simple."

All politicians pander, everyone of them - FDR, TR, Kennedy, Clinton, Reagan. How else do you think they get votes?

In the words of a friend of mine, who also brought this point up:

Obama is showing that he is in fact...a unifier. Thats why there are actually Republicans who like him and plenty of independents that will vote for him. You can be FOR your party without attacking and loathing the other side. Its a new concept I know, but then...its a new day.
