Hillary + McClurkin - Universal Health Care = Obama. Are there 10 key votes where Obama differed
Advertisements [?]
from Hillary? I can only identify about a half dozen significant votes where Obama and Hillary both voted and they voted differently (Obama voted better on half and Hillary voted better on half).

They are both blatantly bi-partisan in their approach.

Hillary supporters and Obama supporters are both rabid in their preferences, but I just cannot see the differences in the approaches they have taken during the brief time their Senate careers have overlapped (other than the surface differences of race and gender -- and I'd love to see either a black president or a woman president). Aside from their votes in the Senate which are remarkably comparable, I see Hillary's health care program as significantly better than Obama's (but Edwards' program is MUCH better then either and Kucinich's legislatively DOA plan is still the best). Plus, I am still greatly discomforted by Obama's embrace of the grotesque homophobic bigot Donnie McClurkin.

Can anyone identify 10 significant votes where Obama and Hillary both voted but differed?
