I have no disagreement with this but have some ideas on why a loser like Obama is doing so well. I think that distortion of the markets by government :1) Iraq war and government spending, especially was making some people rich but with borrowed tax dollars and huge deficit and 2) the investor bailout, make people much more susceptible to beief that the R government takes care of the rich , and screws the poor, like Obama and dems run on now. So they are more likely to blurr the idea of tax cuts versus tax rebates (welfare) because they figure the government borrows from China to make the rich richer. I am just glad the past few weeks the republican campiagn got onto the redistribution theme, tax cuts vs welfare(McCain could have hit a home run if he took a Maverick stand on the bailout) . But I do see where our party caused a problem with HUGE government and spending.

Excellent observations. One other thing that has boosted the Messiah...after the primaries he moved closer to the center in his speeches and has done a good job of talking around his real plans. If we credit him with nothing else, we have to give him credit for being able to lie so well.
