Obama hitting on JFK method of getting a pristine Senate record

Like Jack Kennedy in his 1960 presidential run, Barack Obama seems to be missing a number of votes recently — votes that his fellow presidential candidate Democratic Senators Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and Chris Dodd all seem to be making, such as the Lieberman-Kyl bill, to declare Iran’s Revolutionary Guards a terrorist organization.

Given that 30 Democrats in all voted for this, this is another reason for me to be skeptical of liberal bloggers who are willing to question Democratic backbone, but never do anything about that, i.e., vote Green or something, at election time.
