Fidel Weighs in on U.S. '08 Presidential Race

Disclaimer: Castro supposedly said this. Others swear hes dead.

"The word today is that an apparently unbeatable ticket could be Hillary for president and Obama as her running mate ," Castro wrote in an editorial column on U.S. presidents published on Tuesday by Cuba's Communist Party newspaper, Granma.

Of course his favorite president was also Carter, whom I despised.
 Im sure these statements do more, much more for the Republican party than the Democratic party.  In fact it can be argued that Castro saying these things almost makes it look as if he pulling for the Republicans..  Now If he's really dead, then a case could be made that the Republican party themselves started this rumor. Thats how detrimental it could be to the Democrats.
