centreleft // a new voice from the British left

Drop everything.  Hold the front page.  Wow.  Huge news breaking that may come to be regarded as THE PIVOTAL MOMENT in the 2008 American Election: Dan Hannan is about to announce his endorsement.  The Conservatve MEP and extraordinary self-publicist (he’s written a book recently in case you’ve managed to miss it – which by the way is to be advised), will not keep us waiting much longer.

CentreLeft spies inform me that both the Obama and McCain camps are are on tenterhooks having courted Hannan vigorously over the last few months believing that his decision will be key to the outcome in a number of election-deciding swing states which have close ties to Kent and the Home Counties. 

Forget the debates, don’t worry about the economy, Hannan’s announcing and that’s going to be a game changer.  I know I can’t wait.
