This may be a good way to introduce the UK to the two U.S. Presidential candidates but it is a fluff piece. More info was given for McCain and info on Obama on Education like he was the first Black president of Harvard Law Review would not have used up more words than they used on McCain. Also for Flaws, the statement that McCain is healthy and released his medical records is not accurate and McCain's biggest flaw is his temper.

This might be OK for a UK audience that might lack the familiarity with the candidates, although I was in the UK during Watergate and the papers carried at least as much coverage as the US papers. The points are not well balanced. Obama's flaw is that he was a smoker. McCain's are his age and health history. Get serious.
