It appears that even the usually level-headed (if staunchly neoliberal) Financial Times has caught a case of the stoopids. That, or they’ve decided to come out unrepentantly in John McCain’s camp. Either way, their article today on the presidential race has to earn of the top awards for specious, misleading stupidity in campaign journalism this year.
The article begins with the tired question of why Obama isn’t leading John McCain by bigger margins--since, apparently, 336 electoral votes given current polling isn’t enough. With unemployment on Friday jumping by 51,000 to take this year’s job losses to almost half a million, Mr Obama is mining a potentially rich seam.
