This week, two points in an emerging pointillist picture of a White House leaking supportnot the support of voters, though polls there show steady decline, but in two core constituencies, Washington's Democratic-journalistic establishment, and what might still be called the foreign-policy establishment.
From journalist Elizabeth Drew, a veteran and often sympathetic chronicler of Democratic figures, a fiery denunciation ofand warning forthe White House. In a piece in Politico on the firing of White House counsel Greg Craig, Ms. Drew reports that while the president was in Asia last week, "a critical mass of influential people who once held big hopes for his presidency began to wonder whether they had misjudged the man." They once held "an unromantically high opinion of Obama," and were key to his rise, but now they are concluding that the president isn't "the person of integrity and even classiness they had thought."

Ping.
They once held "an unromantically high opinion of Obama," but now it is very romantic. He's talking in his sleep.
Who could be more detached than Joe Biden? "Wiser", however, doesn't apply.
You mean they never understood that Bummer is a puppet run by committee???
"Influential" but, astonishingly stupid, apparently.
Are you kidding? No, say it isn't so! [/sarcasm]
Why would the WSJ give this Obama swooning skank a writing gig?
That hope and change not goin’ so well Pegs?
She eats crow now.
I guess this article is just giving us the sneak preview of how the liberal intelligentsia sheep will be backing away from his colossal disasters to come. Of course his supporters all know what he’s about, but 50 years from now you’ll still hear excuses and rewritten history, akin to their worship of FDR today. Hopefully, what they have to deny and ignore about Obozo won’t be as bad as what the nation went through during FDR times.
Sounds as if the aftertaste of the bummer koolaid is starting to get to ole peg.
But what becomes of the broken hearted?

They go to work!
AHAaaaaaaaaaa
Now I know why Ms Noonan’s suddenly discovered conservativism once again....her DC journalist friends are having second thoughts.... so she is now trying to take advantage as if she were with us first and all along.
I did respect her once.
Well what happened Peggy?
You were telling us how brilliant and charming Obama was during the election.
What? It wasn’t true?
Peggy you burned your credibility in 2008 and I doubt you’ll be able to get it back.
I DID, I saw a picture...in fact I saw more than one, didn’t I?
Oh yes, I did.....Our President was bowing from the WAIST in these pictures..I never saw such a thing, did you? From the WAIST I tell you...our leader is a jerk, really........
I hate to sound like a Dittohead but Rush is usually right on the money: Obama will be the media’s Waterloo.
Obama is who we thought he is and was: a radical Marxist, a true believer who will stop at nothing to get his agenda passed and a permanent socialist bureaucracy established and entrenched to ensure a permanent Democrat government.
