In typical fact-free conservative bloviation, the "socialist card" being played against Obama has no anchor in reality. At least no reality that actual socialists believe in.
John Bachtell, the Illinois organizer for Communist Party USA, sees attempts by Sen. John McCain's campaign to label Obama a socialist as both offensive to socialists and a desperate ploy to tap into fears of voters who haven't forgotten their Cold War rhetoric.So the next time you hear some conservative blathering on about how Obama is a socialist, you can explain that you know he's not a socialist because you've never seen him at the meetings.
