Tom Delay on Chris Mathews calling Obama a Marxists radical.

If one wants to take sling labels, "Marxist" is a safer and smarter choice than "socialist." "Socialism," the socio-economic system, has a very specific meaning and Obama doesn't remotely qualify. Marxism might be stretched, at least to the point of plausible deniability. This from Wiki:

"Any political practice or theory that is based on an interpretation of the works of Marx and Engels may be called Marxism."
