Rupert Murdoch, the conservative media giant, sees a Barack Obama presidency in our country's future. And he's not unhappy about it, either. Via The Huffington Post, Murdoch is quoted thusly regarding the Illinois Senator:

"He is a rock star. I love what he is saying about education. I think he will win and I am anxious to meet him."

So what about the other guy?

"McCain is a friend of mine. But I think he's got a lot of problems. He has been in Congress a long time, and you have to make a lot of compromises. So what's he really stand for?... I think he has a lot of problems."

Go figure. Murdoch has a case of Obamamania. Once again, the media conspiracy rears its ferocious head. And there's more from Reuters.
