From the link above:
"The Illinois Democrat said he could no longer stand by the statements he made after his 2004 election and earlier this year that he would serve a full six-year term in Congress."
Just as he waffles on pledging to serve a six-year term, soon he will be waffling on lobbyist gifts/trips.
And soon, if he continues to make 2008 presidential campaign steps, the Clinton war machine will put him in its sights, and a flury of anti-Obama stories and questions about his positions will be in the media.
The Clinton war machine has already knocked John Warner out of the 2008 campaign, and Obama will soon be told to "talk only about 2012, or else."
