That’s correct. Of course, they would do it subtly, by campaigning only very faintly for him. That way they’d know he would lose, and they would avoid the wrath of their own Republican rank and file after the loss.
For the people running Wall Street and the two parties, it matters less which party wins the contest than that they retain control over the winning party. Obama is firmly under control, following Geithner’s and Bernanke’s prescriptions, so he would be a very acceptable alternative to any establishhment Republican candidate. It’s the non-establishment candidates, in either party, that make them nervous.[/quote]
