Earlier this year it became clear that democrats would be running away from Obama as the election neared:
Vocal opposition to the administration’s policies has been another tactic used by Democrats. In his post-speech comments, Arkansas’s Mark Pryor criticized the president for his stances on gun-control and the Keystone XL pipeline. Natalie Tennant, who is trying to hold West Virginia’s Jay Rockefeller’s seat for Democrats, has urged the president to “rethink” his stance on energy and called him “wrong on coal.” “I will fight him or anyone else who wants to take our coal jobs,” she said.But hesitancy to be associated with Obama is not limited to Republican-leaning states. After Tuesday’s speech, Mark Udall from the purple state of Colorado refused to say whether he wanted the president to stump for him. Wisconsin’s Democratic candidate for governor, Mary Burke, who is challenging Republican Scott Walker, skipped out on the president’s visit to the state on Thursday.
The ensuing months have seen matters only get worse. Joe Trippi says Obama has become a drag on the democrat party:
MEGYN KELLY: David Axelrod comes out and says that was a mistake. Was it and how big of one?JOE TRIPPI, DEMOCRATIC STRATEGIST: I agree with him. Big mistake. I mean -- the president is a drag on Democrats. It's the case. He can't run away from it. Democrats are trying to localize these elections, make it between them and their opponent, not between them and Obama and their opponent. And this just walked in a gift to the Republicans. It really was.
It's gotten to the point that democrats called on a white President to save them from the black President.
It may be too late for running away from Obama now:
Likewise, a lot of conservative Democrats — including about half the House’s “Blue Dog” coalition — who had voted against Obama’s main priorities got swept out in a huge Republican wave in the 2010 midterm elections.When a candidate tries to separate himself from his party’s leadership, he’s assuming that the party’s core supporters will understand that he needs to do it — that the checks will keep arriving and the activists will keep knocking on doors. But there’s always the risk of demoralization.
Obama is so toxic that democrats in Hawaii abandoned a plan to name a park after him:
Two Honolulu city councilmen have dropped plans to rename a popular beach for President Barack Obama.The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reports Councilman Stanley Chang and Council Chairman Ernie Martin decided to withdraw the proposal after hearing from the public.
The councilmen last week introduced a resolution to change the name of Sandy Beach Park to President Barack Obama Sandy Beach Park.
The beach is a popular for bodysurfing on Oahu’s east side. It was a favorite for the president as he grew up. He bodysurfed there while on vacation during his 2008 campaign.
Martin says in a statement that he heard historic and cultural sensitivity concerns from the community about the name change.
A President is frequently unpopular in his sixth year, but what makes this year interesting is that democrats are now turning on both Pelosi and Reid. "Centrist" House democrats (you know, the kind who vote with Obama and want you to forget that) have adopted an anti-Pelosi message:

Obama will soon be known at the “Black Death.”
Is he not leftist and anti-American enough for them?
“Is he not leftist and anti-American enough for them?”
yes, but only after the election.
Election head-fake. When reelected they will jump right back on the Obola bandwagon.
Democrats who pretend to be opposed to Obama when they go before voters are the same people who consistently supported Obama in Washington.
These people are all liars and phonies. This is just a tactic. As soon as the election is over they will say F.U. to the voters and go back to blindly following Obama.
They are hoping that people are too stupid to see this.
The result of all this contention (and if things go right)may be Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
Just like Alison Grimes, they’re all lying to get elected too.
Ain’t buyin’ it, folks.
Liberals are the sleaziest, least moral, athiestic examples of POS extant.
Believeth them not.
They lie, cheat, steal, and boink pigs.
Obama will turn a deaf ear to them. They are expendable. In fact, the whole Democrat Party is just a temporary fig leaf hiding the real leftist enterprise - OFA, Democracy Alliance, CAP, etc. This new left feels they are on the threshhold of realizing the eschaton. They’ve got ObamaCare, which will inevitably morph into single payer, state socialized medicine. They can hardly hide their glee at rolling Boehner and McConnell on amnesty. Ten million new leftist drone voters is the gold ring of the long march. Once that is achieved the workers’ paradise will be upon us. So what if a few underling senators and representatives have to be sacrificed to the greater glory of Obama?
If you wrote it yourself, you've really got talent.
Here it is with a little added HTML:
These are the same Democrats that marched in lockstep to Obama,Reid and Pelosi and gave America all the problems they could handle for the next 50 years.
- A Health Insurance that you were not allowed to see until it was signed into law. One that was drawn up by a man that advocates people in America should not live past the age of 75.
- An IRS that was used to target Conservatives and people that thought differently or disagreed with them.
- Left an American Ambassador to die and refused to send help then covered it up.
- Sold arms to drug cartels that were used against American law enforcement.
America has become a Third World Country under this Administration and the Democrats.
Right... maybe they’re in ‘revolt’ because he choked off the $$$$$$$$$$$$$.
After all, “O” and MO have to think of their future.
Yet, in her debate this week, she took on a "preachy" and "lecturing" tone very similar and more like that of the President, than that of a person who was running away from that failed style of leadership and substance and committed to "serving" to preserve America's constitutional limits on power.
Her arrogant and highly condescending tone toward her opponent, Mr. Tillis, even dripped into her tone with the Moderator, reminding him time after time, like a 4th grader, that "the Speaker hasn't answered your question!"
Her tone becomes as obnoxious to the ear as that of the President. That tone, on its own, is one thing, but her absolute devotion to the Reid/Pelosi/Obama government takeover of the lives of citizens says that she cannot now expect to "run away" from policies which the President himself asserts "are on the ballot."
He has done a good job as president, except for these: coal, pipeline, guns, marriage, voter ID, jobs, national security, IRS, targeting, Secret Service, defense, social welfare, spending, unions, allies, insurance, truthfulness, strength, respect, professionalism, statesmanship, justice, business, self-employment, taxes, arrogance, religion, freedom, Constitution, lawfulness, immigration, internet, surveillance, exceptionalism, traitors, corruption, Benghazi, veterans, Iran, leadership, police state, TSA, racism, branding, smearing, intelligence, cover-ups, blame, regulation, defiance and humility.
lol, aka Obola.
“full revolt” would be democraps filling impeachement for the good of the republic. Campaign yacking isn’t any where near that.
The Dem’s figured that killing off the tea party would solve their problems...but when Obama’s approval hits 40% and below, that means he’s absolutely toxic outside of a few concentrated, deep-blue areas.
