" 'Sometimes during campaigns the rhetoric gets overheated and amplified,' he conceded, after I re ...

7791 [lbo-talk] Obama opts out of public financing -- rank: 1000
NEWS ALERT from The Wall Street Journal June 19, 2008 Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama announced that he would become the first presidential candidate to forgo public financing of his general election campaign since the system was established three decades ago.

7795 [lbo-talk] Wall St CW on politics -- rank: 1000
Tom Gallagher, the Washington guy for Wall Street's favorite economist Ed Hyman, writes in this morning's briefing that "'08 will be the reverse of '80" - and not just in numerological terms. That is, he sees this year's election as representing a swing towards more activist government, just as Reagan's election meant the reverse. (He concedes that the shift began in 1978, with Carter's embrace of dereg.) He cites an NBC/WSJ poll that asked whether government should do more to s ...

[From: "Ann Coulter" - pretty funny if she really thinks that econ profs are "pinkos"] Dear Fellow Conservative, Do you know which special interest has given more money to the Obama and Clinton campaigns than any other?
