I see it in "quitters". I think fundamentally he is a QUITTER, a "I'll take my marbles home" type of narcissist of the worst type. These people cannot function when all the praise, and adoration, and outright idolotry is sucked out of the room. (Remember this idiotic kids, prompted by their parents or teachers, singing those stupid Maoist type Cult of Personality songs??)
If the Democrats are smart, as a party, they are well advised to jettison this guy as soon as possible and look for an alternative in 2012. Regardless, they are still going to get creamed at the polls in two years. We are just warming up in the next 40 days. ;-)
I think the opposite. I think he is a committed Communist who will do everything he can against us. All the way. He will have to be completely beaten down and flushed out of his bunker.
