In 2008 they WERE crazy over Obama. Will, et al were all about how great he was even though the man never said anything of substance.
And frankly, I don’t get why people think he’s such a great speaker. He can’t think without a teleprompter and his stuccato voice is annoying as hell.
These people have been living inside the bubble for so long, they have no clue what life is like in the majority of the Country. All they know is what they believe to be truth, that is, their perception of things, based upon their lives amongst themselves.
These people are the very definition of Elitists. The rest of the Country can be going to hell, but as long as they have their cocktail parties, their money and their social circles, they really don’t care.
Along comes an outsider, popular among the average people, and they cannot comprehend how such a commoner could possibly become President. To them, this has to be a joke, for She is not one of them.
What the rise of Gov. Palin and the Tea Party has done for me is to identify exactly who are real Conservatives and who are the Faux Conservatives. A number of people I once respected I now have little respect for.
