Yeah, but is Obama a socialist? Most of the list has complained he's just another centrist, Clinton-style Democrat, can't wait 'til the hullaballoo o the elction is over 'cuz it's just the same ol' same ol', etc.

So, while it may suck there was vociferous "No, he's not a socialist!"-type rhetoric from the Obama campaign, according to the capital-L Left, he isn't, and to pretend or hope he's one is delusional.
