Obama to channel Lyndon LaRouche
Pittsburgh Tribune Review ^ | October 9, 2008 | Salena Zito

Lyndon LaRouche -- the left-wing perennial candidate for president of the United States -– was the first candidate to broadcast a paid half-hour television address, which was pretty much was the only way the U.S. Labor Candidate could get attention on the airwaves back in the good old days of UHF.

Now Barack Obama is resurrecting those half hour segments by buying up the air-waves a la LaRouche (and Ross Perot, remember those glorious charts?) all in an effort to make a last minute pitch to seal the deal with voters.

His poll numbers must be lower than the Obama media can spin it in phony polls!

At least the ratings of the shows in the same time frame will get a boost. A half hour of Obama has to qualify as some sort of toxic event.

Isn’t MSNBC already a 24/7 infomercial for the Obama campaign?

Lyndon LaRouche could not win for himself and his acolytes.

But he has achieved a victory of sorts.

The Democratic Party has fully embraced his campaigning style of conspiracy theories and class war.

The old fraud can now die vindicated.
