Dick Morris: It's 'Very Possible' Obama Bails Out Of Presidential Race
WeArePolitics ^ | 9/30/2011 | Bill Knowles

Posted on 09/30/2011 10:14:09 PM PDT by Billlknowles

On Hannity today, former Clinton advisor turned Conservative pundit Dick Morris said that after speaking with a Democratic strategist he feels that President Obama may just pull a Lyndon Johnson and leave the 2012 Presidential race to leave the door open for a future run at the White House.

It's not so far fetched, but I personally think Obama's arrogance and pride will stop him from doing this. LBJ was certainly a narcissist, but he's not even in the same league as Obama. Further, 'Landslide Lyndon' had several other reasons to drop out of the race that King Barry I doesn't:

The DNC and the DSCC would be delighted if he just vanished.

Gonna be hard for Obie to do an about face and step aside now. He’s already cranked his re-election campaign into gear, and his minions are hard at work on his behalf.

What would he say to all of those $35,000 a plate donors in San Fransicko?

Do you think the DNC and Barack want to face a Republcan
majority after the 2012 election. If you think Barrack whines now, just wait until that happens.

BS. With the Primaries coming up in January...there’s no way he can jump out now. They are going to try and run against a “do nothing” congress as their only hope—and they are going full throttle in that direction. Too bad for them that leads to a cliff.

Right now, Hillary's only chance for the Wite House, is for Zero not to run. And even then, whoever runs against her, can beat her like a baby seal, as being a continuation of Obama.

Its too late for her or anyone else to disassociate themselves from him. The election is 13 months away. Every time she opens her mouth all someone has to say is "failed policies of Obama ADMINISTRATION" and keep on repeating, ad nauseum. Use the leftist tactics against them.

She failed to break away from Zero when she would have had a chance to distance herself from his policies. To do so now, she'd appear as a mere opportunist. Of course, to leftists that would not matter. To liberals, if Zero dropped out, ANYBODY who ran as a DEMOCRAT would be OK. Even if Vladimir Putin ran with Kim Jong Il as his VP.

No way he could face moochele after making her go to a Target store for a photo-op. He will run and, sadly, obama may win.

His sick ego and narcissism will not give us that blessing. Sadly, there is much more damage he can do to America and will try to do. His hatred for this country, its values and strength, its accomplishments, will not allow a hate-filled ideologue like him to just walk away.

That way they can run someone they will advertise as blameless for the disaster dim policies hv created or made worse. We can only pray the independents hv wised up in the meantime.

Dick is as usual talking nonsense.
He should go back slamming Palin.

Then again, if 2012 is simply awash for the Dems, they may feel it’s not worth a sacrificial lamb.

Caution! Remember, Dick Morris is wrong 99.998 % of the time.

Though I doubt his pride would ever allow himself to do such a thing.

The only way he quits is if he gets a suggestion that he might be facing a serious probability of Arkancide!

Press that pantsuit Hillary – you’re up!

Seriously, how do narcissist handle failure? Do they fight on regardless of the odds and the pain it causes their inner soul, just so they can leave some sort of legacy? Or do they shrink from the humiliation, choosing not to go through it, salvaging any small ounce of dignity they can?

Hitler and 0bama have many things in common. One thing is certain: most narcissists in positions of great power have bad endings.

“Seriously, how do narcissist handle failure?”

Perhaps like Al Gore is doing? Would he be considered a narcissist? I find his behavior unbelievable. He just won’t. let. it. die.
