I thought if you don't vote for Obama you're a racist?

I'm sure we will get Jeb Bush any moment now calling him an extremist.

Well, we all know Obama Girl is an extremist right?

If Obama Girl isn't gaga over Obama anymore you have to know the party is over.

I kid of course. She matters not one whit in this election or the last but you know what does? Donors:

As Mitt Romney's campaign fundraising gathers steam, boosted by huge contributions to allied groups, President Barack Obama is unexpectedly struggling to keep pace — and he may be having the hardest time in the mountainous west, where moderate Democrats have made deep inroads in recent years.

As BuzzFeed reported last week, 88% of donors who gave $200 or more to Obama in 2008 have yet to give that amount to his campaign this cycle.

A deeper analysis of campaign finance data shows that the west has seen an especially high level of drop off in Obama donors. Oregon topped the list with a 91% decrease in donors giving at least $200—the amount required for contributions to be individually reported—and Colorado, Nevada, and Idaho were close behind.

The Obamas will live in NYC.
Baraq will undoubtedly get a tv show or two (PMSNBC) because he couldn’t bear to be out of the media for 20 seconds.

The kids will have to change schools, but I’m sure there’s something that rivals 34 grand a year Sidwell for them in NYC.

An exorcist would be more useful.

pandering to black voters with the “we have his back” theme.

The reason they are behind them is: That is where they keep thier wallet.

I’m not so sure the Obama post-presidency will be pleasant for him after the monumental thrashing his party will experience this fall.

Face it, liberals never blame their policies, so Obama will be blamed. Even at this juncture, no one wants to be associated with him. He will be seen as a complete failure, a fraud, a charlatan, the butt of jokes.

The party will be forced to turn to more moderates like Evan Bayh and Mark Warner, so Obama will become a peripheral force to the left of where the party will need to go to survive.

I’d say his post-presidency will be a quiet one, because both sides of the ideological divide will want him off the stage.
