They're way too conservative for most Europeans' taste (and Bush didn't exactly help either). Personally I'm rooting for Obama, but give me Clinton over any Republican any day. |
yep... here's a quote from the Economist (UK based) on Huckabee:
"Likeable though he is, Mr Huckabee is tainted by an anti-business strain ofpopulism and a literalist faith that sometimes blinds him to basic
science. The possibility of a Huckabee presidency would give many
independent voters (and this newspaper) pause."
mccain is actually perceived much more positively, from the same magazine:
"It takes an exceptional individual to court the hatred of his own party
rather than compromise on issues he believes in, such as the need for
immigration reform, the wrongness of torture under any circumstances or
the need to tackle global warming. Should Mr McCain become president, the
world will see an American with different views from those it has sadly
learned to expect from Republicans recently."
