There, Obama is considered a left-wing politician, while in Europe he would be considered moderate right-wing.

I'm sure I can "grasp" the concept. I moved from Venezuela because of Chavez. Yeah, he's a socialist.

"Spread the wealth" is a pretty socialist concept. And yeah, I heard the whole speech he gave that day, and I know he said other things that are not "socialist," but that phrase is as socialist as it gets.

Oh, and I thought McCain's speech admitting defeat was amazing. I wish he had been that eloquent and confident throughout his campaign.
