Default Liberals to keep pressure on Obama for results

By BEN FELLER
Associated Press
December 1, 2008

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Barack Obama promises to steer the nation straight again. He better be ready for a strong force pulling left.

The president-elect drew plenty of support from moderates, but the liberal side of the Democratic Party followed him most resoundingly: labor unions, influential Internet blogs and legions of grassroots volunteers. He won almost 90 percent of the liberal vote, more than the previous two Democratic presidential nominees, John Kerry or Al Gore.

Now the same millions of left-leaning voters who worked relentlessly to get Obama elected want results. That means ending the war in Iraq, ushering in universal health care, halting harsh interrogation tactics against suspected terrorists, making it easier to form unions and aggressively tackling global warming.

And everyone of the goals will make America weaker, but that is their goal after all.

Republicans needs to keep pressure on Obama, to keep our taxes down.
