Obama-Mania

Tonight is the Minnesota caucus, and my attraction to the candidacy of Barack Obama has encountered a couple of stumbling blocks.  First is the fact that George Clooney and a slew of Hollywood types have seen fit to endorse him, which must give one pause.  Second, more seriously, Obama was outspoken in opposing the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in the Illinois Senate, which is probably old news for many MoJers.  The same measure passed the United States Senate by a vote of 98-0.  Not a promising vehicle for pro-life progressivism, to say the least.
