Four short years ago, Pres. Bush garnered over 63 million votes, more than Obama received last night. The msm and Democrats in Congress and the Senate immediately began the job of dismantling any mandate he thought he had.
They were totally successful because he did not fight back at all. There were literally weeks when he was not visible at all.
BO deserves exactly as much reverential treatment from conservatives as Democrats gave Pres. Bush.
