The Coming New Order

Rupert Murdoch says Obama will win in a landslide come November.  He echoes MoSup's prediction, but for different reasons.  She says Obama has the kids behind him, the dumbest, most undereducated demographic in America, but full of misplaced passion.  Murdoch says the economy will be the factor that  propels Boy Wonder into power.  I'm not buying into either argument.  Not as long as Boy Wonder keeps flapping his gums.  Consider. In a phone call to a London fundraiser held by Rupert Murdoch's daughter (WTF happened to the proscription against accepting campaign funds from foreigners?) Boy Wonder said the relationship between the two countries needed to be made fairer.  “ "We have a chance to recalibrate the relationship and for the United Kingdom to work with America as a full partner" ” Huh? Does Obama contemplate paying Brits reparations for having their American colonies taken from them?  What? Of course, this statement is pregnant with implications of where he's coming from, and it ought scare the hell out of even the laziest participant in our republican democracy.    NFW, Rupert.  If it does come to pass, however, the Barn Army calls dibs on George Soros, and Moveon.org.. UPDATE This snippet from the WSJ story on the above subject is a snicker ... “ Murdoch staunchly defended the Fox News Channel’s “Fair and Balanced” motto as accurate, adding that even Bill O’Reilly “gives both sides all the time” — a remark that prompted laughs from the audience. So why aren’t there more liberal voices on Fox News, Kara Swisher asked? Murdoch replied that he would hire a liberal voice if he could find one that was strong enough. “Would you hire Keith Olbermann?” Swisher asked. Murdoch’s response: “No, I fired him five years ago… He’s crazy.” ”
