People are dumb, pt. 45,019,573

"She [Hillary Clinton] said we have been an 'on-your-own society.' She said, 'It's time to get rid of that and replace it with shared responsibility.' That's out with Adam Smith and in with Karl Marx."

--Mitt Romney, 7-22-07

"They [Hillary Clinton and John McCain] are more centrist, so there wouldn't be as stark a difference between them on fiscal policy than you'd see with some of the other candidates."

--Michael Darda, chief economist at MKM Partners LLC, quoted in Reuters, "McCain, Clinton wins may soothe Wall Street," 1-09-08

Suppose you were an idiot. And supposed you were Mitt Romney. But I repeat myself!

More stuff from Reuters today:

"My sense is that Obama would govern as a reasonably pragmatic Democrat ... I think Hillary is approachable. She knows where a lot of her funding has come from, to be blunt," said Greg Valliere, chief political strategist at Stanford Group Co., a market and policy analysis group.

But Edwards, Valliere said, is seen as "an anti-business populist" and "a trade protectionist who is quite unabashed about raising taxes."

"I think his regulatory policies, as well as his tax policies, would be viewed as a threat to business," he said.


I would hope that these sorts of reports would either move more people towards Edwards or move the Dems towards Edwards' positions.
