So Obama had links to someone or other years ago? No one would seriously suggest that he is currently some sort of Marxist-cum-black-nationalist guerrilla, or indeed that he personally ever was.
By contrast, there is no evidence whatever that the personal friends and uncritical adorers of Trotsky who went on to become the neoconservative movement (and who include McCain's choice for Secretary of State, Robert Kagan) have changed their views one iota.
Like the old Communists (not least, Peter Mandelson), Trotsykists and fellow-travellers who make up New Labour, they deny outright that anything they have ever done has been wrong at the time, and it is perfectly clear that, while their means may have changed, their ends are still exactly the same.
