No spin... just direct quotes. This is how reporting should be. I hate watching a debate, for example, and then seeing two hours of spun up commentary (on both sides) telling me what I just heard. Anyway, below is a link that lays out issues for the 2008 election, and then finds direct quotes from each of the candidates, if found, on each subject. If a candidate has quotes on both sides because he or she reversed their opinion, that's there too, with dates. I'm not sure how well researched the voting records are yet, but it also includes how candidates have voted in the past on the issue as well, in some cases. It has all of the candidates (including libertarian and green parties, etc.) and lots of issues. Check it out for yourselves: http://2008election.procon.org/ I want to see if I can donate to them or something.
