Will the moonbats admit they've been had, though? My sense is that most of the posters and readers of HuffPo are fueled more by hatred of conservatives than by any real devotion to leftish principals. In fact, the only issues per se they seem to care about are abortion and gay rights. For most of them, it's just about whether things appear politically correct. They are ecstatic about having a black President and I think they'll give him a pass on everything. For example, HuffPo has had a couple of good articles recently about how it's a canard that there is global warming. I think this is because the HuffPo crowd don't want Obama to have to do any of the silly things they wanted GWB to do about global warming. They're going to give Obama cover to stall on that issue (which I'm pleased about, by the way).

Eventually previous era ‘moonbats’ turned on LBJ and Carter, so I’d say its a certainty it will take place with Obama.

It will be hard to see that coming over the next month, as the Inaugural takes place, and the MSM fawning reaches its zenith.

but if the economy continues (as I suspect it will) to spiral downward, eventually the MSM will begin reporting the reality, and all of the sudden ‘Change” has a whole new, unintended meaning.

We’ll see. I’m not all that ate up with the goofies over Obama as President, as many are. I suppose its because I lived through the Carter era.
