If you're gonna be a master of sneaky pete, a master meddler, you'd better be sure your sneaky schemes work.
Obama's didn't.
Which is how he's found himself in this predicament, according to New York Post columnist, Miranda Devine, who cited findings from a new book by a couple of reporters:
It used to be said that President Joe Biden was serving former President Obama’s third term, that his former boss was controlling him from the home he had bought in DC’s ritzy Kalorama neighborhood, two miles from the White House.
The feeling was that Obama was the real leader of the Democratic Party and his wife, Michelle, was the secret weapon they would whip out in 2024 to replace Biden and trounce Donald Trump.
Well, none of it came to pass, and judging by his irrelevant poll numbers, Obama’s star has long faded.
In a CNN poll last month, Obama received only 4% support from Democrats who were asked which leader best represents the party, lagging behind Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Kamala Harris and Bernie Sanders. Ouch.
There's plenty of other evidence of Democrats wanting nothing to do with the man they once viewed as the Lightbringer.
Democrats continue to fall in the polls: Recent surveys from CNN and The Economist/YouGov, hardly right-leaning pollsters, found Democrats in general experiencing record low public approvals.
A few days ago, Congressional Democrats saw their support fall to 21%.

Wow, 0bama polling behind Kackling Kamala.
Schardenfreude
Ouch is right. I can’t say I am disappointed. 😜😄
Wow, 0bama polling behind Kackling Kamala.
><><
It’s a beautiful thing to behold. I hope he is thoroughly humiliated.
Well, at least a few liberals must (surely) have noticed that in 2008, Obama was saying things like, “At some point, you’ve made enough money,” and in 2018, he had a net worth of $40M and wasn’t saying any such thing anymore.
Big Mike has commented a couple of times on his stinking.
Michelle probably blames Barrack for her Podcast becoming so unpopular, where in reality, she needs to look in the mirror to know ‘who’s to blame?’
Even those who purchased her book (NOT me!!) may have tired of hearing such a wealthy woman complaining about every little thing, all of the time.
He smells and someone forgot to flush.
Ya but I’m sure the flys still love him.
Maybe Obama polls so low, because he’s never going to run for office again? SO people don’t really perceive him as a leader for the future?
0bama has way too much class for the average Democrat voter.
The smell was always there. They just had to clear their sinuses
Looks Black but acts White.
He just ain’t Black enough for the ghetto voters
He’s leading from behind.
Look. He’s lazy and shiftless. Not hands-on. Calls the shots from his perch and lets others do the dirty work and the MSM covers for him. That works from the Oval Office where he could address the press on his own terms. Now he’s outside looking in. Think loser Claire McKaskill sticking her nose in the news but nobody’s listening. Obama knows better than to expose himself.
I don’t think they should mention Michelle and whip out in the same sentence.
I always felt once rumors about Obama being ranked worst president surfaced, Barack pushed Joe forward in 2020 to cover his butt. Barack knew he could make a joke out of Joe, save face for awhile, and destroy Biden’s career. Barack’s problem was he took it too far enjoying it and Jill started to take the elder abuse taint, She had to give old Barack his slap down. Barack is afraid of Jill. She has the secret chamber key exposing ALL the Obama secrets.
The Dems have moved so far Left that Obama is not radical enough for them. They want a violent communist revolution, not gradualism followed by totalitarianism. Not sure that is good news.
Thanks.
