OBAMA’S ECONOMIC PLAN: “Should be called Red Dawn II.“ That seems a bit extreme, but you can read the plan (PDF) and make up your own minds.

What’s clear is that Obama’s policy proposals are getting a lot more attention than they did before Hillary’s inevitability broke down. Like Mike Huckabee, he got a “nice guy” pass when people thought he didn’t have a shot, but a few wins in a row and he’s starting to get major-candidate scrutiny. Some Obama supporters object to such scrutiny, but their claims ring rather hollow. After all, he is running for President.
