John Kerry famously said that foreign leaders wanted him to win, but it is President Bush who is getting the overseas endorsements. Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said yesterday, "We hope and believe that the next President will again be Bush."
On Monday, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that a Bush defeat "could lead to the spread of terrorism to other parts of the world."
That's why we don't hear the MSM quoting him much these days.

Maybe Putin has better intelligence on who's going to win than we do.
And here I thought that sKerry had the overseas vote--maybe he has France and Islamic only.
I think Putin isn't predicting a Bush win, he just wants everyone to stop and think and consider the consequences before they vote.
Putin did have intelligence and warned us afteer 9-11, that Saddam was sending terrorists to the US to attack us, which was mostly ignored by the MSM.
Well, Kerry has the support of N. Korea's president, Kim Jong Il, the support of Arafat and Chirac.
And the disdain of everyone else.
Who is the REAL LEADER OF THE WORLD?
Putin even said he told GWB that Saddam had WMD. Of course this was buried in the news a few months ago. Hard to believe the president of Russia supports Mr Bush while half of Americans don't see the recklessness of electing Kerry.
Putin also said, way back when, that he tried to tell Clinton the importance of fighting terrorism, but Clinton was not interested.

I just found an interesting editorial. A line from there is:
"After all, Putin wants Bush, while Arafat prefers Kerry — and that is all we need to know."
