So, I do not think he ever really played to you, though he said the closest thing to what you believe and still does for that matter.

I also think the press loves to play up minor things because it sells papers.
Well I wasn't overly thrilled with his recent "comprimise' vote on wiretapping or his past vote to continue the awful patriot act ..but he did come out against the war when it was unpopular to do so and I do believe he had then been in the Senate then h e would not have gone along with the initial vote to endorse it like Hillary ,Edwards,Kerry . and so many others did.
