I guess I won't be the only one not surprise that
url=Noam Scheiber[/url] on TNR's the Plank is backing a rightwing, anti-abortion social conservative over a leftwing candidate.
I understand that the Bushies are taking a lot of guff on the right over immigration, and that there's a certain amount of posturing they need to do in order to appease their base. But, honestly, you'd think the more important priority at this point would be to avoid having the Mexican presidency fall into the hands of a demagogue, which is pretty much the only way to describe Calderon's opponent, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
Explain to me again please how they are supposedly a trendsetting, liberal magazine.
I guess the blogofascists like ourselves just don't understand what is good for us.
