Let's hope Obama doesn't make that same mistake. They all lie. I like Obama, but they all lie. The further from the general election the bigger the lies, thus the regression to the center from both sides. They lie to get the nomination, then they lie to get elected, then they tell themselves that it's OK that they lied, because they had to to get themselves into the position to do even almost or a rough approximation of what they said they'd do. If they hadn't lied, they say, then someone else would be doing even worse things than the things they lied about saying they were going to do, but didn't.
