Perception counts.
And here you are, attacking Cenk's perception. Wow, the contradiction is making me positively dizzy. Obama supporters (at least the ones with carefully thought-out reasons for their allegiance) have chosen him because of this record of action. In this race, unfortunately, that comes down to a question of "Who in this election has committed the fewest heinous acts?" That question is not a winning issue for McCain or Hillary.
(Remember Reagan in New Hampshire?) No!
I like how you answered your own question here. Efficient.
