Fidel Castro gosta de Obama

Uma semana depois do candidato à nomeação democrata, Barack Obama, andar a percorrer a Florida para cortejar a comunidade de expatriados cubanos — visceralmente anti-castrista — sai-lhe isto na rifa: elogios de Fidel Castro, que o considera o "mais progressivo" de todos os concorrentes à Casa Branca.

E isto e' suposto ajudar Obama?
Depois do Hamas e Fidel, falta o Chavez, Hezbolah, Siria e Irao.

Meanwhile, Obama is "all over the place" about "talking" to Chavez. First Obama says the US should talk to Chavez, then that not, IF Chavez is supporting the Farc in Colombia, and finally he says that it is a fact that Chavez is supporting Farc. (So, should the US talk to Chavez or not ?).

At the same time Obama criticizes the Republicans for not "engaging" and "not having a policy" for Latin America, but it is the Democratic controlled Congress that is not approving the Free Trade Agreement with Colombia. (And Free Trade was one of the big achievements of the Clinton administration. Not anymore. Not for the current Democratic party.)

It is increasingly obvious that Obama is "hostage" to the left, the so called "democratic wing" of the democratic party, moveon.org and the other activist groups that have been so important in doing FUNDRAISING for Obama ("follow the money", right?)

This democratic primary reminds me the 2006 Senatorial Race in Connecticut. The left manage to beat Liebermann in the Democratic primary, but Liebermann run as an independent and won the general election.

Of course, in Nov. 2008, Hillary will not run as an independent. But McCain will.

Não é bem o superdelegado que Obama quer...
