Oh Please! “straight out of the Karl Rove handbook”? Honey, McCain and the GOP so far has been very gentle with BO. You are rightabout one thing though, BO is not a uniter. After refering to rural voters as bitter and clinging, then telling anyone who laughed at his assertion that inflating your tires would save enough gas to not have to drill as ignorant I’d say that he’s sucessfully ran off the moderates he’d have needed to win.
“My early decision to support Barack Obama over Hillary Clinton was founded upon the notion that in this important election year, Senator Obama was the candidate best suited to pulling the country together. I was sure Clinton, despite her proven political and governing prowess, would only unite the Republicans with her perennial scandals and ruin the Democrats’ chances of taking the White House.”
This is an example of libs being able to believe multiple contradictory things simultaneously. BO’s mission, in his/her mind, was to “pull the country together” under socialist rule.
Maybe this person’s fantasy is that BO would make socialism, multiculturalism, infanticide, and surrender suddenly acceptable to the rest of the nation and we would all “pull together” for her noble goals.
At least conservatives understand that when we govern, we govern a divided country in which about 30% of the citizens are viciously opposed to everything we stand for and will do ANYTHING to prevent effective conservative governance. W, unfortunately, never understood that he was in a death battle with these folks and tried to treat them like rational humans.
I suspect that the author is really just sorry that BO will not be as effective at fooling the rubes about his radical agenda as the author thought—so back to “miss moderate,” HRC; may she can fool the rubes better than BO.
The “pulling together” crap only works when people share common goals. I don’t want to pull together with the author. I want to prevent him/her from destroying our nation.
