Editorials: In November Elections, Cast Your Vote For…Evil? | Forbes
Boring and evil. That’s the November election in a nutshell. The latest edition of Vanity Fair is surely revealing on this end. They come down on the boring side of things. In his signature front-of-the mag editor’s letter, VF’s editor Graydon Carter says President Barack Obama “has fallen short on selling himself and his achievements.” It seems safe to say that Democrats “aren’t all that excited by Obama,” Carter writes. In the liberal Hollywood world Vanity Fair inhabits, the red carpet left is — oh, let’s just say — ehh, about Obama. According to a round-up of major polls on Real Clear Politics, Obama is running neck and neck with ex-Massachusetts governor Mitt “RomneyCare” Romney, in an election that is going to be decided by three states. Maybe two. It’s back to red state versus blue state. And while this should be a redo of Clinton versus Dole, Obama is struggling in the polls.
