Obama is not about to be... |
|
...taking the profits away from insurance companies by offering a pure public health insurance or nationalizing any banking/finance system to protect working people instead of the current bailout ripoff of our tax dollars these Wall St. thieves are currently enjoying.

2. Because it's a trigger word...for people who are probably unable to actually define Socialism. |

4. If they brand Obama as a leftist, they can redefine the center and easily tug further right |

The Democratic "Third Way" does not mitigate the ground lost under Republican rule.
