Right-wing talking heads seem to favor Obama

Posted in 2008 Elections by ed

Watching the Sunday talk shows this morning chew over the Donkeys’ delegate dilemma, it seems clear that the GOP flacks are selling Obama soap.

I take this to mean that they think (like me) that McCain has a better chance against Obama in the fall (despite polls across the past month that give Barack a slight edge here over Hillary).

Nevertheless, the dire economic picture continues to argue that McCain can’t win in any case, and thus that those who believe Obama is best should continue to back him.

Then again … Many thought Bush-Cheney could not win in 2004. My worry as that November approached: Fascists once in power do not lose elections; it takes a big war — a big defeat — to get them out.

This morning it seems that their War on Terror will have to be enlarged for McCain (no fascist, certainly) to stand a chance. And in that world Hillary seems more electable than Obama.
