I'm American and have no opinion at all about the Evening Standard, except that I like the newspaper taxis that once inspired a brilliant John Lennon lyric, and that I see that one of its writers says that Gordon Brown has parted from tradition and essentially endorsed (not literally endorsed, but essentially endorsed) Obama.
Gordon: Nice of you, but keep it quiet! One thing Obama isn't in particular need of right now is testimonials from foreign leaders. You speak a version of American ;), so maybe it's all right in your case, but for God's sake don't go giving Zapatero any funny ideas.
