Ninety Eight: Smart Like A Fox Or Dumb As A Post

Had BO and the Dems passed a health care plan prior to the Massacre in MA, they would have been annihilated in the November mid-term elections. As it is, BO is now free to withdraw the health bill which ONLY Dems supported, and instead come up with something much smaller which perhaps a handful of Republicans can support. Whether by accident or on purpose, the MA result has saved BO's ass, for now.

What BO and his folks have not noticed, or are intentionally ignoring, is that most votes in November of 2008 were not cast for Obama; they were cast against Bush. The majority of Americans don't want an explosion of government. They just want government to defend the borders, give us safe food and medicine, and then stay the hell out of our lives.

At the beginning of his reign, King BO had goodwill galore. He had supporters who ordinarily would not support a Dem, especially one who had no experience at doing anything except making speeches and leeching off his wife's income. He took all that support and interpreted it as a sign from the heavens that he was "special," and could remake the world according to BO.

In BO's mea cupla with Stephanopolous last night, I still didn't see any humility. I don't think he's capable of having any.
