Here it is, from the CBC itself. No conjecture, no speculation, no wishful thinking, no hating on either candidate, no strategery. Read it for yourself and comment.

For those too lazy to do so, I've summarized the article below.
In a bizarre twist of fate, Bush has apparently decided to covertly endorse Obama. How did he do this? By saying that meeting with leaders of adversial countries "can send the wrong signal." http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la- na-bush29feb29,0,2240873.story
While some might perceive this as a dig at Obama, this is in fact a tacit endorsement, since even someone as out of touch with reality as Bush must understand that, between Iraq and his current 19% approval rating, his criticisms of Obama's proposed foreign policy can only make these policies seem better. Perhaps he could have gone father: "Y'all like Iraq? This Alabama fella won't bring you anything like it."
Were I McCain, I would politely ask the president to stop killing me with kindness.
May we please have just a single blog from a writer whose name is not Jonathan Singer that at least pretends to be reasonably objective and analytical? I understand that there are a lot of people who want HRC to win, but really, enough with the snark. Obama and his supporters are not your enemies, and you are as much to blame for the division within the Democratic party as they are. You accuse them of being shrill, partisan, and blind to their candidate's flaws, but you turn around and act no better than they do. I am not sure whether it is funny or sad, but I seriously doubt that it reflects well on anyone's ability to write clearly and impassionately about the historic race that we are witnessing. Please. Just one freakin' blog that doesn't take cheap shots.
