Soros claiming he would not endorse a candidate has finally done so

The Politico

Commentary by Jim Campbell

The “all American” I love capitalism when I can use it to destroy countries and their currencies has finally spoke. Obviously hedging his bets that Obama may not be eligible to run he has picked Romney, do we need a better clue that thinking voters must vote against Soros and his potential Obama surrogate?

Soros: Obama ‘exhausted,’ not much difference with Romney. In fact at one time he became so frustrated with Obama he told Progressives: Prepare to Bail on Obama and then The Huffington Press told us that Soros told progressive donors Obama might not be the best investment.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it, I’m J.C. and I approve this message.

Soros is a Romney fan, Obama light!

Billionaire investor George Soros, a powerful funder of liberal causes who hasn’t anted up for Barack Obama with Citizens United-style money, tells Reuters that he’s “slightly disappointed” by the president and outlines this view of the 2012 campaign:

I think you have an extremist conservative, be it Gingrich or Santorum, in which case it would make a big different which of the two comes in. If it’s between Obama and Romney, there isn’t all that much difference, except for the crowd they bring with them.

Romney would have to take Gingrich or Santorum as a vice president and you probably have some pretty extreme candidates for the Supreme Court. So that’s the down side. On the other side, the Obama administration is a bit exhausted, so it’s not all that strong. So it won’t be that great a difference and I think there won’t be a great deal of enthusiasm on either side of the battleground. It will be more civilized than the previous elections have been. Or you’ll have an extremist candidate. Then I think there’ll be a lot of emotion on both sides.

My colleagues reported last week that Soros cut a $100,000 check to a super PAC supporting Senate Democrats, after making a $75,000 donation to a House Democratic super PAC earlier this year. Soros could make a big difference for the president’s reelection if he wanted to, but so far that doesn’t seem to be what’s happening.

Angie, I reallly like Santorum also. Seems we are in agreement about West too!
I wrote to Jan Brewer every week last summer pleading with her to run for President. The woman has balls of steel and ain’t afraid of nobody!

Actually Ron Paul, is good on the Constitution but as a President he’d be worse than Obama. He’s and old fool and it’s time he hung up his spurs.
