90%

Many once-Republican-now-Obama supporters have told me that the reason they refuse to vote McCain is that he voted with George W. Bush 90% of the time. This is something they have seen in one of Senator Obama's very effective TV ads and latched on to as their strongest (sometimes only) reason to vote Obama.

Michael Smerconish, the morning talkshow host on 1210 is one of the most fair commentators on the air. The guy looks right at home sitting in for Glenn Beck or sitting next to Keith Olbermann. He took an interesting look at that 90% claim in his Daily News column today. It's worth a read.
