According to the WP<\/a>: George Soros has decided to ‘put his money where his mouth is’ in order to remove George W. from office in 2004.<\/p>\n

“It is the central focus of my life,” Soros said, his blue eyes settled on an unseen target. The 2004 presidential race, he said in an interview, is “a matter of life and death.”<\/p>\n

Soros, who has financed efforts to promote open societies in more than 50 countries around the world, is bringing the fight home, he said.

Fred Wertheimer, president of Democracy 21<\/a>, is disappointed in Soros and pledges to watchdog his efforts. <\/p>\n

Soros’ contribution isn’t a tenth of the projected fundraising goals of the Bush campaign and he only supports the usual suspects in Dean, Kerry, Clark and Gephardt. <\/p>\n

It’s a bit like watching two rival families gearing up for a mob war and so far Soros’ people are pitifully outmatched.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
