How President Obama Saved Capitalism And Lost The Midterms

Edited on Fri Nov-05-10 02:15 PM by thelordofhell

"If I were one of the big corporate donors who bankrolled the Republican tide that carried into office more than 50 new Republicans in the House, I would be wary of what you just bought.

For no matter your view of President Obama, he effectively saved capitalism. And for that, he paid a terrible political price."
