Here’s some noteworthy praise of Barack Obama’s emerging economic team — coming from the right.

Appearing on C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal” this morning, free-market champion Larry Kudlow had these kind words to say about Barack Obama’s economic advisers:

KUDLOW: I want to complement Senator Obama’s appointees — Timothy Geithner, Lawrence Summers, they are terrific free traders.

HOST: Most of these men have experience working with Robert Rubin, the former Treasury Secretary from the Clinton Administration.  Is this the change that Senator Obama talked about on the campaign trail or is this going back to the future?

KUDLOW: President-elect Obama is that change, and I support him as much as I can…. Of every one you are talking about, they are all good economists.  I do not agree with everything they say but they are basically free market people.  My particular disagreement is, I would like to see more tax cuts and less government spending at the margin.  I am worried from some of the reports coming out that we are going to spend $700 billion to promote economic prosperity.  I think that is troublesome.  That will not do the job that they want it to do.
