Obama has already been proven to have deep ties to wacky religious groups/leaders and frequently makes references to spiritual matters; it is fair to say that he is influenced by them to a great degree. If he was willing to throw his own reverend of 20 years "under the bus" for the sake of political gain, it seems likely that he'd be willing to do the same to smut peddlers :2 cents:
Sometimes "change" can mean change for the worse...

Look, Obama isn't the only guy that here who has links to wacky religious leaders that they have thrown under the bus. McCain has ties to a handful of these guys. McCain changes his positions all the time to suit the group he is talking to. What happened to all of his fire over campaign finance reform? Oh, that's right that came after 2000 when the republican machine squashed him in favor of Bush, but now that that same machine he was trying to bring down is on his side he isn't so worried about it.
We can argue the semantics of it for days but in the end neither can be sure. Until the guy gets into office you don't know how he will run his presidency and what he will decide to focus on. When you are the president you get to decide what you want to do so we can't say for sure one way or the other that either of these guys will go after porn or not.
