Obama includes nuclear plants as a feasible option for energy conservation. This does not go in pair with the voices of the left which want to equate nuclear plants as equally noxious as coal plants in terms of safety of operation and impact on environment (i.e. the storage of nuclear waste issue). However, this does not go as far as McCain`s fervent support of an ambitious nuclear energy development package. This declaration, therefore, in my judgement, receives as much as 70% from the left.</div>The Moderometer Teamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13801876831037369366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129759478313498416.post-18806888422719903122008-09-26T18:50:00.000-07:002008-09-26T19:10:20.200-07:00Live Debate: Iraq<a href="http://babylika.supernuker.com/m_images/conserv_80.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 336px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 149px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="133" alt="" src="http://babylika.supernuker.com/m_images/conserv_80.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://babylika.supernuker.com/m_images/conserv_80_small.jpg"></a><br /><div>Senator Obama on Iraq: still questioning the legitimacy of this war.

The senator from Illinois is going as far as he can on the Right without alienating his base. According to CNN, Obama will link faith to almost every issue from the economy to the environment. However, the senator will stay close to the Center by attenuating some of his words. For example, he will focus more on the necessity to reduce the number of abortions than speaking of his pro-choice position or the evangelical’s pro-life stance.The Moderometer Teamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13801876831037369366noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7129759478313498416.post-91823293088365911532008-09-22T09:11:00.000-07:002008-09-22T09:11:07.104-07:00The College Issue - Case Study - Barack Obama - Good Teacher?
