Now that would a ticket worth watching! Here is Barack Obama’s Top Ten Campaign Promises from Late Night with David Letterman.

When Barack Obama served the people of IL, he voted “present” on more than 100 votes. When Clinton and Edwards confronted him on his voting record in last night’s debate, Obama said not voting yes or no 100+ times was often part of his strategy to get things done.

EDWARDS: Can I just ask, though, before I do — I mean, I hear the back and forth on this one particular vote, but it is — I do think it’s important, and I mentioned this about Senator Clinton earlier, to be fair, about Social Security. I do think it’s important whether you are willing to take hard positions.

I mean, the members of the Congressional Black Caucus who are sitting in front of me right know they have to go to the floor of the House every day and vote on hard issues. And they have to vote up or down or not show up to vote — one of those three choices. What I didn’t hear was an explanation for why over 100 times you voted present instead of yes or no when you had a choice to vote up or down.

(APPLAUSE)

OBAMA: I’ll be happy to answer it. Because in Illinois — in Illinois, oftentimes you vote present in order to indicate that you had problems with a bill that otherwise you might be willing to vote for. And oftentimes you would have a strategy that would help move the thing forward.

Last night’s debate was awesome. Here is a video clip showing when the sparks started to fly. In this clip, Hillary Clinton argued that the candidates’ record matters and preceded to go through Obama’s record. Obama fired back, for the record, that Clinton was a corporate board member for Wal-Mart when Obama saw people’s jobs go overseas. Clinton responded saying while she worked for America, Obama represented slum lords as a lawyer in Chicago.

I didn’t have time to make the other clips, but on health care, Clinton and Edwards both challenged Obama’s proclaimation that his plan is universal health care, demonstrating Obama doesn’t seem to really understand what universal health is or means. In another clip both Clinton and Edwards raised Obama’s voting record in IL where he voted “present” over 100 times to avoid making tough decisions.

I guess he got in. When Vince called close to 6 p.m., he said he was in a line of people, three deep, stretching for blocks. He sent this video into NashFlix.

Mimi and Trudy argue over a bone in this video as Chris Mathews talks about Hillary Clinton’s win in the Nevada caucuses Saturday.

In this video from earlier today, Barack Obama sings “We Shall Over Come” at Atlanta’s Ebenezer Baptist Church. Watch what Obama does for the entire verse “God Is On Our Side.” I’m not sure why he did it (advance to 3:16), but the woman to the far left appears to look at him and recognize what he is doing. This is a five minute video so you can see Obama sing every other verse just fine.

Here is Barack Obama’s ad running on Nashville television stations. Here is Hillary Clinton’s TV ad that starts running on Nashville television stations next week. Which one speaks to you?
