“…and then a step to the Right”
Yeah – what’s okay when you’re a nobody, with a future eye on the presidency, sudden becomes inconvenient when you actually are a presidential candidate. What’s a guy to do…but take a step to the right. For now. Once elected, he’ll give us all the pelvic thrust. (see what I did there?)
Following this presidential campaign is like watching a friend of yours dump a psychotic, potentially homicidal girlfriend. In this case – Obama is the friend, and the crazy soon-to-be ex is the left. In the beginning, Obama could indulge the crazies over at the Huffington Post and Move On.org, simply because, back then, the rest of America didn`t know who he was. He could be every bit as loopy as they are – because the saner folk were too busy working real jobs.
But now that he has the nomination, he can drop the Wesley Clark`s of the world like a chlamydia-infested potato. Suddenly among the normal, Obama can no longer hold onto those nutty beliefs – which means, he must turn right.
[...]
See for yourself: Obama has flipped on the death penalty and thinks guns are peachy. He’s accepted the foreign surveillance act and he’s no longer entertaining high tea with Ahmadinejad. Now he`s up for expanding President Bush’s faith-based programs, and blasted Moveon.org for calling General Petraeus a traitor.
His crazy ex-girlfriend must be cutting up his underwear.
