Experience.

McCain's years in the Senate dwarfs Obama's handful of months.

I mean if you look at an Electoral College map, it's pretty much like an intelligence barometer.

All politicians depend on "sheep" to vote for them. Most voters can't be sure for who they cast their vote since politicians rely on facades, illusions and unsupportable promises. Only those who know a politician personally and vote for that politician avoid being sheep.

I think that's completely untrue. Informed voters (i.e., those who look at what a candidate has actually done and/or how they have actually voted) are fully capable of casting a non-ovine vote.

A voter has to be extremely dedicated to research all voting records of the candidates. As for accurately determining future activity thru history, elected officials don’t always vote the for what they want. They often vote because of party pressure, deals made with other politicians, lobbyists and bribes or they take the path of least resistance and vote “present”. There is also the matter of both the politician and voter being fully informed on the legislation which is not possible given the enormous amount of reading and legal knowledge required.
When voting for someone who has never held public office, there is no way to determine the person’s true nature thus the ovine factor is in full effect.

So it is easy to find the voting records but it is not easy to read and much less understand the hundreds of bills each candidate has on that website. Even if the voter is concerned with just one topic, it is not as easy as "here it is". To be a fully informed the voter one should read the bills and understand why the candidate voted the way he or she did. Some bills have "poison pills" or other misleading aspects since it could be injurious to a cause yet sound like it is in favor. One needs to know leagaleze if they do their own research.
