Hi Jurriaan:

Last I checked, Obama's economic advisors were _more_ conservative
and mainstream than Stiglitz. They include Austan Goolsbee (University
of Chicago), David Cutler and Jeffrey Liebman (both  from Harvard).

There are a lot of similarities, I think, between Clinton (Bill, that is) and
Obama. Even the rhetoric is similar.

In solidarity, Jerry
