you have no idea of the nausea that can result from experiencing this stuff firsthand, here in the DC area.

No kidding. I ride the Metro daily and it's absolutely flooded with adverts from various Lib special interest groups that are attempting to leech off of Obamamania.

The only silver lining is that with all the hype and stratospheric expectations it's going to be very hard for Obama and the Libs not to completely overplay their hand. I think they think they can have their cake and eat it too ... placate their "Progressive" base (source of funding and activism) while winning over the general American Public.

Unless the wheels fall off the Conservative Movement (and note, I am speaking about the Movement, not about the GOP and Congressional Republican Leadership) I don't see that happening. This isn't 1933 where FDR could count on a monopolistic and sympathetic press to carry his water. There are way too many ways to get around the Dinosaur Media and get to the public directly these days.

other freepers can turn off the tv or mute the sound and pretend he isn’t president. living here it is an omnipresent reality. like you, i am hopeful that he will disappoint and disillusion those who are emotionally invested, rather than ideologically invested in him.
