The "just a corporate candidate" meme on Obama, I don't get it..
where does it come from?

He seems like a whole lot more than that to me when I read his speeches and look at what he fought hard for in Illinois and in the US Senate. He has made cleaning up corporate influence one of his issues and you can tell this if you read up on the type of legislation he has actually fought for and proposes.

Someone please illuminate.
