8657 [lbo-talk] I hope you all vote(d) for Obama -- rank: 1000

Clinton obviously doesn't have the hordes of screaming fans. There's more libido in Obama's support, for sure. She's gotten lots of money from the big bourgeoisie. So's he - e.g., Paul Tudor Jones & his Greenwich pals - but she hasn't gotten the smaller contribs he has. When the big bourgeoisie gives, they expect some returns on t ...

It means that there's no organization, no institution, that can hold "their" candidate accountable. It's not like a party or a union (which could, in theory if not in practice) or even a trade association. It's just a bunch of people brought together by the grooviness of it all. Do ...

8664 [lbo-talk] Ann Coulter loses it over McCain -- rank: 1000
I really doubt McCain has much of a chance. All that terrorism and war shit has lost much of its resonance. Just ask Rudy Giuliani. McCain is winning the Rep nomination because he's perceived as the most "liberal" of the bunch. He's not liberal, of course, but compared to Ann Coulter, he is.
