You're contradicting yourself. You
knew about his voting record and bill sponsorship, so he was therefore not a "huge unknown." You didn't vote for him because you didn't agree with his politics. Simple as that, and it's OK to say that.

Really? Say George Bush had once been governor of California. If he didn't carry California, would you still say he didn't "deserve" to be President? How exactly does carrying a particular state affect ones worthiness to sit in the Oval Office?
Sorry I'm not trying to beat this into the ground, I'm just confused by your posts.
