Scary Political Prognosis: Lou Dobbs (the “pope of popularist politics”) voters’ will decide ’08

Christopher Gacek of Politico.com has issued a frightening Halloween prediction:

“CNN anchor Lou Dobbs may be the most important person in the 2008 presidential election aside from the candidates themselves. The bundle of concerns that Dobbs and his audience have about globalization, trade, diminished American sovereignty and immigration will be ignored by politicians at their own peril. The elites of the Democratic and Republican parties don’t realize the deep political vein Dobbs has struck. In fact, they tend to be quite scornful of him. Nevertheless, the presidential candidate who pursues and captures the `Lou Dobbs voter’ will win the 2008 election.”

Gacek’s prediction:  “the next president will have the blessing of the pope of popularist politics (P-cubed), Lou Dobbs.” (emphasis added).

Oh no, Mr. Bill!!!!!!!!!!!!
