Unfortunately there’s a ring of truth to this. McCain ran a disorganized and often incoherent campaign, the Bush administration’s response to the financial crisis was wildly erratic and almost certainly exacerbated it (every time Paulson & Bernanke made public announcements, they added to market uncertainty and triggered stock market declines), and — despite the rhetoric of Republicans and dreams of his supporters — Obama has picked centrist advisors who arguably don’t represent sharp breaks with the previous admin.
Not to say I believe the Pravda hypothesis, but these days the news is so bizarre that it sounds about as sensible as anything else.
I love reading pravda. They come up with the most hilarious stuff.
