Entry: Who Is Barack Obama? Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/who_is_barack_obama#31886 Post contents: As an avid MSNBC watcher (mostly for Buchanan's expert analysis) and a new visitor to paleocon/lib thought, I have been confused: Why does Mr. Buchanan seem to favor McCain? It cannot possibly be on policy: McCain's immigration reform ideas, war stance and general attitude towrad globalism run entirely counter to all that Buchanan espouses in his books, whereas Obama at least sees a need to end our misadventure in Iraq. Were Buchanan to make a public point of endorsing Barr or Baldwin, it would make sense. But his critiques of McCain, while scathing, are critiques of policy only, while his critiques of Obama seem more personal. As a new but avid Buchanan fan—and an avowed McCain doubter—I'm perplexed.
