Chris "Tingles" Matthews called Obama "Carter" (by mistake?) for heaven's sake!
They figure Palin will win, so they're breaking ranks with ZerO and trying to position Mittwit as Obama-lite, which he is after all, in order to draw in liberal crossover votes.
But it would be a mistake to think that Mittwit is being pushed only by liberals, he's also a tool for the TBTFs. More wealthfare, more welfare, and higher taxes for the middle class via keeping "QE forever" Bernanke in his seat.
And did I mention you have to buy Obamaromneycare?
That's the only way I can see him winning.
