McCain Campaign Calls Obama a "Socialist" -- But Why is That a Smear?

As the presidential race enters the final stretch, the McCain campaign has been sharpening a new line of attack against Sen. Barack Obama: charging that his tax plan amounts to socialism. We speak to Harper’s publisher Rick MacArthur about whether Obama is a socialist and why being called one is considered a smear in US political culture.

1. It is when it is a substitute for N word.

2. "Spreading the wealth" shouldn't be any kind of basis for an...

...attack either. The McCain campaign planners clearly target the most uneducated and unenlightened subset of the U.S. population.

Nice to see it not working.

3. "Obama is a champion of Wall Street interests"

We know that. He's not a socialist or "left-winger" of any kind.

4. Is it possible that the American public has finally

wisened up to the idea that a little socialism would actually be in their self-interest (at least that of the majority of the population? However, as pointed out in the video, Obama is hardly a socialist.
