I have a lot to say about this at some later point, but I agree with Libertas here.

Where exactly is the "about-face" here? Clearly these idiots at Rolling Stone weren't paying attention.

 Barack Obama as a man of the people against Wall Street? Is that why Obama's total top campaign contributors included Goldman Sachs, Citigroup Inc, JPMorgan Chase & Co, UBS AG, Morgan Stanley, et al.?  

Is that why Obama was one of the leading shills for the passage of the Bush-Obama-Paulson Wall Street 'bailout' scheme?

Of course, it's not like McCain was any different in this regard.  But for McCain to support that crap and not have the support of the beneficiaries would make him pretty dumb, right?  At least Obama was smart enough to get their full backing (and then rely on the stupidity of no one to notice).
