The Monday after the Kentucky Derby, you’d think ABC would know which way horses run around an American racetrack—counter-clockwise—as you’ll see in the photo of Mine That Bird’s stunning triumph in the Run for the Roses.

But have a look at the Dem and Republican horses in the animation that Good Morning America used today to illustrate James Carville’s theory of why Democrats, according to his new book, are positioned to rule for 40 years.
Yup, they’re running clockwise.
Could it be that ABC is more familiar with horse racing in . . . France, where they run clockwise?

That’s okay. Once Obama manages to turn this country into France, I am sure he will order the direction that horses currently circle the racetracks of America to be reversed.
After all, as the left is so fond of reminding us, the Europeans do EVERYTHING better than we do.

And STILL….Sawyer let him get away with the “teabagging” slur….
There is a video game where a large screen shows horses racing and people can bet on the winner. It too has the horses going the wrong way.
