More Commies For Obama

This kinda plays hell with the whole Obama-as-socialist nuttiness. The Financial Times endorses Obama:

Rest assured that, should he win, Mr Obama is bound to disappoint. How could he not? He is expected to heal the country’s racial divisions, reverse the trend of rising inequality, improve middle-class living standards, cut almost everybody’s taxes, transform the image of the United States abroad, end the losses in Iraq, deal with the mess in Afghanistan and much more besides.

Succeeding in those endeavours would require more than uplifting oratory and presidential deportment even if the economy were growing rapidly, which it will not be.

The challenges facing the next president will be extraordinary. We hesitate to wish it on anyone, but we hope that Mr Obama gets the job.

Warren Buffet, Robert Rubin, Paul Volcker and now FT. Bunch of damn commies is what they are.

    Let's not forget Obama has the endorsement of Alaska's leading newspaper, the Anchorage Daily News. I assume they can see Russia from their rooftop.

    And speaking of socialism, this comment from Palin in an interview with the New Yorker

    "And Alaska—we’re set up, unlike other states in the union, where it’s collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when the development of these resources occurs.”

    Guess that makes her the "Redistributioner in Chief" of Alaska.
