Don't forget this triple endorcement, Vladimir Putin, Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro. I can't wait to see what these three have in store for America with Obama's help. We know after the open mic incident Obama and Putin have something special planned for America after the election.

Raise your hand if you think Joe and Jane Citizen in Anytown USA will vote according to whom the Economist endorses?

Get your heads out of your asses. This means nothing to no one.
This is what happens when you actively try to be ignorant.

This says more than you than anything else.

I'm surprised that Drudge didn't link to it - there are 1800 comments on the article, the majority from frothing-at-the-mouth idiots.

It's hardly a ringing endorsement for Obama, but I wouldn't expect so from The Economist. I don't always agree with the magazine's slant, but I've been reading it faithfully since I was 20 (12 years now). It's by far the best world political/economic magazine, bar none.

Go have a drink, AeroGuy. Sounds like you need it.

Even more, how many undecided people at the moment right now, actually care about endorsement?
Who cares about anything?

Maybe 2 or 3% of the electorate is still undecided. Endorsements by Bloomberg, Powell and Christie (I know he's not playing politics, but he may as well just give Obama a **** job on national TV) will likely tip those voters in the president's favor. There's really nothing that Romney can do about it without looking crass at this point. I actually do pity Romney right now - the election is fast slipping out of his hands for reasons that have nothing to do with himself, or that nobody could have precipitated two weeks ago, and worst of all, he can't fight back without looking like a douche. Sucks to be in that position
