Is Senator Obama falling into the trap, the trap that every politicians that starts out with good intentions eventually falls into once he or she realizes that they only way they will be elected or continue to be re-elected is if they give in to the ever increasing pressures of doing and saying exactly what is expected of him or she, by the big corporations, business and special interests?
Take for instance, this most recent trip to Afghanistan and Europe, if this was truly a fact finding mission and not a publicity stunt, than why did the Obama camp, find it necessary to drag along so many reporters and news anchors? Is it just that Senator Obama is evolving, thus his changing platform and public views are proof to that growth, or is the Senator falling into the trap that many of his fellow politicians, eventually and many times willing fall into, of saying and doing anything everything that he or she believes the people want to hear or see?
(Lastly, this is not an anti-Obama article. This is legitimate question and concern. I still feel that Senator Obama is still the better choice from the alternative of McBush and the same old same old, big oil and big business run White House that the Bush Administration which led us down the path of destruction that we are on.)

Obama can only hope the corporate media doesn't completely turn on him,but they will eventually.
There is no advantage for the elite to have a democrat in the whitehouse.
They will let us be hopeful for awhile then the attacks and lies will begin.
If the corporate(librul:-) ) media can't steal this election there is always the not so supreme court or the hackable voting machines.
Some say you get the government you deserve so if the status quo offends you as much as it does me get off your ass,stop complaining and do something.
rex,name calling how intelligent.
Why DO you hate America so much to want to see her continually punished?
Let us be enlightened with your great knowledge as to why mcsame is the best choice.
And while other politicians have done the same thing, it doesn't excuse it or make it a good thing.
I am getting dizzy listening to Obama flip flop and make mistakes.
And I am sick of his publicity hounding. I have cancelled subscriptions to two newspapers because all they do is fawn over Obama.
deeper than the trap of having "Republican" next
to your name after the fiasco of the Bush administration.
