Putin Puts In

Now here we finally have some comment on the campaign from a completely unimpeachable source:

MOSCOW, Russia (CNN) -- Russian President Vladimir Putin says terrorist attacks in Iraq are aimed at preventing the re-election of U.S. President George W. Bush and that a Bush defeat "could lead to the spread of terrorism to other parts of the world."

Putin, speaking Central Asian Cooperation Organization summit in Tajikistan Monday, made his most overt comments of support so far for the re-election of Bush for a second term.

That's it, then. The personification of the Spirit of Democracy, Vlad-de-mer, supports Bush. I guess that says it all.

There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that he is forming a 527 called "World Despots for Truth."
