The Obameter: Tracking Obama?s Campaign Promises

By Ann Bartow

From Politifact:

PolitiFact has compiled about 500 promises that Barack Obama made during the campaign and is tracking their progress on our Obameter. We rate their status as No Action, In the Works or Stalled. Once we find action is completed, we rate them Promise Kept, Compromise or Promise Broken.

View the list of promises and related graphics here. One great feature of the Internet is the ability to track the performance of politicians in real time like this.
