Contrary, as sometimes he is, to popular opinion, Daniel suggests a failing economy shall promote a backlash against Mr. I Understand Global Capital:
The Republicans have waited too long to throw up the barricades to stop this and they wasted their energy on other targets, as I have noted before in my remarks on the anti-Huckabee campaign. If they do succeed in stopping McCain, the alternative will be someone who personifies globalisation just as McCain personifies militarism, which will not, contrary to the developing conventional wisdom, be a boon for the GOP in a year in which a recession may well have been going for months by Election Day.
But what if Mr. Global Capital is also Mr. Nationalist Bailout?
UPDATE: Daniel reminds me Mitt's not about bailouts. He's all about workouts. Like, erm, this one?
