The Economist Endorses Obama

The Economist:

"As a result, this election offers American voters an unedifying choice.

Many of The Economist's readers, especially those who run businesses in America,
may well conclude that nothing could be worse than another four years of Mr Obama.

We beg to differ.

For all his businesslike intentions, Mr Romney has an economic plan that works only if you don't believe most of what he says.

That is not a convincing pitch for a chief executive.

And for all his shortcomings,

Mr Obama has dragged America's economy back from the brink of disaster,
and has made a decent fist of foreign policy.

So this newspaper would stick with the devil it knows, and re-elect him."

Caro Barack, spero tanto che tu vinca, ok.
Tuttavia.
Ma che cosa cavolo hai fatto?????

Romney Ad in Florida Ties Obama to Latin American Dictators

In what has to be interpreted as a sign of desperation,

The Romney campaign is running an ad in Florida that says Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez support Obama.

The idea is to convince Floridians--especially Cuban-Americans--that Obama is buddy buddy with socialist dictators.

The real takeaway here is that Florida is still up for grabs and Romney is very nervous.

Ohio is looking bad and losing Florida on top of losing Ohio would seal his doom.

In football, this would be called a "Hail Mary pass."

ha risparmiato al pianeta 4 anni di "Bomb-bomb-bomb-Iraq" McCain e solo per questo si meriterebbe un posto nel giardino dei giusti:

sotto la sua amministrazione,grazie al cambio di strategia militare,è stato catturato Bin Laden.

ha dato copertura sanitaria a 50 milioni di americani.

ha salvato l'industria automobilistica.

ha ereditato una situazione economica ed occupazionale da panico,ha fermato il declino, ed ha leggermente migliorato i numeri.

questo nei primi due anni del suo mandato,perchè in seguito,con le elezioni di mid-term ,il congresso è passato sotto il controllo Repubblicano.

a me non pare poco...ma poi ognuno la vede a modo suo.

Why Obama Is the Favorite

Nate Silver explains in one sentence: "Obama's ahead in Ohio."

His slightly more complicated explanation:

"Mr. Obama is leading in the polls of Ohio and other states that would suffice for him to win 270 electoral votes,
and by a margin that has historically translated into victory a fairly high percentage of the time."

Forget the Middle Class, It's Elite vs. Elite

While all the television ads are about the middle class and who loves it more, the reality is a bit different.
As Deepthroat told reporter Bob Woodward some 40 years ago:
"Follow the money."

In 2008, Wall Street bankers were divided between John McCain and Barack Obama,

but this year they have come down clearly on the side of Mitt Romney.

The five biggest sources of donationst o Romney's campaign this year are

Goldman Sachs,
Bank of America,
Morgan Stanley,
Credit Suisse,
and Wells Fargo,
all giant financial institutions that recognize Romney as one of their own.

Clearly an elite group if ever there was one.

How does Obama compete with these financial powerhouses?

He does get small donations,
but he has his own elite team as well.

His consists of people from the tech sector, government, and universities.

His five biggest donors are
the University of California,
Microsoft,
Google,
government employees,
and Harvard.
These people made their money by dealing in ideas rather than by moving money around.
