I don’t think anyone sees the fact that he confronted Senator Obama in the street and grilled him with McCain talking points and Fox News just happened to be there as a coincidence.
In addition, he has admitted today on national TV that he does not have the money to buy that business and that he would benefit from Obama’s tax plan. He also said that he doesn’t believe in Social Security, that Iraq is a great war and various other oddities. I don’t think we will be hearing much more from him.

FYI, any information from a “Martin
