Taking a Page Out of the Clinton Playbook

It appears that Obama is taking a page directly out of the Bill Clinton play book and is moving to the right to appease conservatives who are not all that happy with McCain being the Republican nominee.

US presidential hopeful Barack Obama has said he would expand George W Bush's programme of involving religious groups in government initiatives.
...
He said challenges from saving the planet to ending poverty were too big for the government to solve on its own.

A council involving religious groups would help to set the national agenda, Senator Obama said in his speech.

"We know that faith and values can be a source of strength in our own lives," said Mr Obama.

Obviously, this sounds all well and good. Just don't trust him to actually follow through on any of it.
