When all is said and done, the word “failure” will be either spelled ‘Obama’ or be synonymous with Obama.

That reminds me of a local “Cleveland-ism.”

When Art Modell moved the Browns to Baltimore, the Modell name became a nounverb of a different kind.

i.e. “My stomach is killing me. I gotta take a Modell.”

or...”I had too many beers. I’m going in the bathroom to hug the bowl and see if I can Modell it out”

Drew Carey even used it in his TV show.

LOL
