Why do I think the support of people like Powell and Warren Buffet is helpful to Obama? It's helpful because these sober establishment folks are saying that he's not a bomb-throwing radical. Me? I doubt that any Repub would have an easy time defeating any Dem this year, and I think Hillary would be doing even better than Obama in the polls. It's the economy combined with Bush fatigue, even without the Obama Cult of Personality. Still, I dread the effects of an Obama-Reid-Pelosi triumvirate on America (and on my personal plans and goals). But that's because

Kling on the banking crisis. A quote:
The claim that this crisis was caused by "deregulation" is a claim that government needs to exercise more power. Right now, that is the conventional wisdom of the establishment.
