Barack Obama's closing statement from the third presidential debate, October 15, 2008 [emphasis added]:

I'm absolutely convinced we can do it. I would ask for your vote, and I promise you that if you give me the extraordinary honor of serving as your president, I will work every single day, tirelessly, on your behalf and on the behalf of the future of our children.

And today, from USA Today, the headline: "It's official: Obamas to vacation on Martha's Vineyard next month."

As a single-issue (work ethic) voter who was swayed by Obama's promise that debate night, I feel horribly betrayed.
