Obama's Albatross "Warren is a living reminder of the economic and social mess that Democrats have created. For Republicans, she is an asset; for Democrats, she is an albatross about their collective neck. Undoubtedly, many of them feel that she should have heeded the advice of former Republican president Abraham Lincoln who observed that it is better to be silent and thought a fool than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt."

 Charles Krauthammer: Return of the Real Obama ; President Obama shifts from a phony centrism back to his social-democratic core.  "The authentic Obama is a leveler, a committed social democrat, a staunch believer in the redistributionist state, a tribune, above all, of “fairness” — understood as government-imposed and government-enforced equality.
"That’s why “soak the rich” is not just a campaign slogan to rally the base. It’s a mission, a vocation. It’s why for all its gratuitous cynicism and demagoguery, Obama’s populist Rose Garden lecture on Monday was delivered with such obvious — and unusual — conviction."
