Barry’s move to the center isn’t going to work the way it did for Cigar Man.

1. The public now is too sophisticated and too well-informed to fall for that old con.

2. Barry has some formidable opponents, as Cigar Man did not. Two words: Sarah Palin.

3. Tea Party Movement. They are Barry’s worst nightmare.
