2008 Elections Analysis
Here is a good analysis of the US 2008 presidential election, also from the Economist. Some nuggets:
* “America tried lightweight in 2000 and came to regret it.”
* “The November election, for all its drama and passion, will usher in a period of pragmatic caution rather than tub-thumping ideology.”
And some fun:
* Al Gore, should he change his mind and enter the race, is a proven loser (except when it comes to Nobel prizes and Oscars).
Worth a read, the entire piece.
