I can't tell you how many times I've heard people call Barack Obama a socialist (today on two separate occasions). I'm baffled. Is rational healthcare policy socialism? Because if it is we're about the only rich industrialized country that wouldn't qualify. Does investment in energy innovation count? Is Marx's ghost whispering in Obama's ear... "educate your children so they'll be more competitive in global markets"?
Well today, that ugly socialist rag, the Economist, came out and endorsed Barack Obama. They write...
"For all the shortcomings of the campaign, both John McCain and Barack Obama offer hope of national redemption. Now America has to choose between them. The Economist does not have a vote, but if it did, it would cast it for Mr Obama. We do so wholeheartedly: the Democratic candidate has clearly shown that he offers the better chance of restoring America’s self-confidence."
