« Clinton Delivers Obama a Big Bounce |

September 07, 2012
Little-Noticed Fact: Average Job Creation in 2011 Falls Below 2010 Levels, Pointing To a Slowing Economy, Not a Growing OneMeanwhile, Obama's best bet is lowered expectations. Which is pretty much the story of his life. If he can get people to accept that the best we can hope for is just shy of catastrophic, people might sign on for four more years of Hell. This may be the best he can do, but it's not the best we can do. The Democrats’ message to wavering, undecided voters was summarized by Bill Clinton Wednesday night: Liberal Tim Noah didn't care for Obama's speech. Watching President Obama give his nomination speech last night, it occurred to me for the first time that he might actually lose. Stuff omitted. He then quotes Obama's new "Long Hard Slog" mantra. We’re dangerously close to Jimmy Carter territory here. First, there’s the boast (“You elected me to tell you the truth”) disguised as an expression of humility (“I won’t pretend the path I’m offering is quick or easy”). A reader wrote to me that he thinks Obama's new favorite pronoun -- "you, you, you" instead of "I, I, I" -- is intended to be a subtle indication that it's not Obama that's failed, it's that you need to do more. We -- meaning you -- really have to get our acts together so that we (you) can fix this. We've seen this before from him, too. Obama of course is now claiming he "never told you this was going to be quick or easy," or words to that effect. But he did previously offer a 3 year deadline: Seems to me that three and a half years ago he thought it would only take three years. Now he's telling us that it'll take four, five, six, seven. Who knows. And as he says this, he says "I never told you any differently." Meanwhile, even Jon Stewart realizes that Obama has failed to deliver.
I said in the comments: In 2008, Obama was a man like no other who's ever existed who would Save Mankind. In 2012, he's runnin' as just a regular guy, just amblin' along, tryin' to do the best he can. Win some, lose some. Needs more time. In 2008, he was a MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE! In 2012, he's a victim of circumstance. He's failed as thoroughly as a president can fail. By all means, let's hire him up again, and let him fail some more. | Recent Comments
