There is an eery parallel:
Clinton’s re-election was forecast as a squeaker and his “Peace & Prosperity” theme was why He Deemed that TWA800 was To Be Found as a sad tragedy, instead of gallivanting around the globe for the culprits.
Obama’s re-election, too, was forecast as a squeaker and the “GM is alive and OBL is dead” theme is why they trundled out The Video lie.
Similar.
Luckily he ran into Romney and skated to victory.
