Also for Obama

My favorite news magazine, The Economist, endorses my preferred candidate. From the editors’ conclusion:

… this cannot be another election where the choice is based merely on fear. In terms of painting a brighter future for America and the world, Mr Obama has produced the more compelling and detailed portrait. He has campaigned with more style, intelligence and discipline than his opponent. Whether he can fulfil his immense potential remains to be seen. But Mr Obama deserves the presidency.

Read it all. And if then, like me, you’ve lived your life as a conservative, but unlike me, you’re still undecided about that Nov. 4 vote, consider the names and views expressed via “The List,” below.

    It's no fluke. Just pay attention to what you overhear or observe politically among those on the street every day.

    All of these people are socialists.

    More likely, all of those people had an upcoming book to promote when they announced their endorsements. (Gotta love a classic.)
