Last Minute Doubts About Obama

Lines are going to be long at the polls tomorrow, so maybe there will be time to ask Barack Obama’s supporters to clarify a couple of things.

For one, I’m confused by their notion of “economic justice.” Last week, in defending his plan to “spread the wealth around,” Obama said that “when everybody’s got a little more money at the end of the month — then guess what? Everybody starts spending that money. They decide, ‘Maybe I can afford a new car; maybe I can afford a computer for my child.’ They can buy the products and services that businesses are selling, and everybody is better off.”
