CNN is well known as a liberal network that has made Barack Obama look like a knight in shining armor. That is what makes this article so shocking. It appears that a CNN reporter is calling out Obama. She goes on to point out how not that long ago Obama promised to use government funding for his campaign, which he moved away from earlier this year. The article goes on to point out how he's been able to raise over $600 million, as much as Bush and Kerry combined. While that is an impressive feat, it is a scary one. Firstly, he's shown the willingness to break promises, not a shock from any politician. My problem with it is that he is spending massive amounts of money like it is nothing. Millions to the major tv networks for a 30 minute spot tonight, millions in advertising. In a world where the economy is dying a slow death, I want someone who has at least some control over their spending, and that does not appear to be Barack Obama.
