I don’t give these people, as you call them, anywhere near that much credit. Obama is losing in late Sept when the economy tanked.He’s succeeded in mobilizing a vast segment of the American people to oppose him and his policies. He’s facing electoral catastrophe in November. Not exactly an irresitible force.
I don’t think he’s an irresistable force now. But being the “first black” president, with the Mouthpiece Media wetting themselves over him, no one, not even the Clintons, wanted to be the ones to point out any facts. McCain either. I can only assume there were decisions made behind the scenes to lay off the topic.
