The Wash Post swoons over Barack Obama this morning. I know what you’re thinking: Ho hum. The word “presidency” appears in the tenth sentence. But nowhere does the word “liberal” appear. Having been elected to the Senate less than two years ago, his legislative record is scant. Yet it’s undeniably liberal. On it a scale of 0-100, with 100 = most conservative, the American Conservative Union currently gives him a rating of 8. This is to the left of Hillary Clinton, who earns a 12 in the current session, and exactly the same score as John Kerry. Obama may be “a fresh face,” but he represents and old and tired politics. When will the media notice that?
