A new meaning for centrist

According to the headline in today’s Day, Obama is staking out a centrist position in the ginned up “debt crisis”. Given that he is proposing Medicare cuts opposed by the vast majority of Americans, and that even Olympia Snowe can’t support them, we must conclude that the term “center”, at least in politics, has a new definition: a point somewhere between Ayn Rand and the ever rightward shifting status quo.
