Obama is a corporate CENTRIST -- look at his actions and look who is working for him. And btw, Clinton was a corporate CENTRIST too.

If you listen to some on FoxNews you'd think Obama was "a Socialist" or the most liberal president we've ever had...far from it...If Obama was really far to the left he would have pushed aggressively for Single Payer for Health Care reform instead of doing deals with Big Pharma and private health insurance providers. If Obama was really so Liberal he would have folks like Krugman and Stiglitz working on economic policy - and Wall Street "reform" would look a little different. If Obama was a progressive and far to the left he would never choose the most conservative former Democratic Senator (Salazar) to be in charge of the Interior Department - Salazar has been a friend of Big Oil for a long time and doesn't believe in strong regulation...and we know if Obama was far to the "left" he would never have escalated the reckless and counter-productive war over in Afghanistan.
