Breaking!! '2010 is gone for Democrats' (Dems admit Obama doesn't care)

2010 Is ‘Gone,’ Says Big-Time Dem

“He cannot save 2010,” the big-time Democrat is saying of Barack Obama. “It is gone. He must now concentrate on saving 2012. But the biggest fear of some of those close to him is that he might not really want to go on in 2012, that he might not really care.”

In my experience, the big-time Democrat has hardly ever been wrong. He does not dislike President Obama. On the contrary, like most big-time Democrats, he worked hard for his election in 2008 and would much rather see Democrats hold onto Congress this Nov. 2 than lose.

He just doesn’t think it’s going to happen. A few months ago, he told me Democrats could win the House in a squeaker and also retain the Senate. We talked again a few days ago, and things had changed.

“There is going to be a total wipeout, and it is totally going to be in Obama’s lap,” he said. “He should drop plans for Congress and plan for Nov. 3 and what he does next.”

The Rats are already jumping off the SS Obama. Look for the Rats to dump on Obama and blame him for everything. Buy popcorn and enjoy the show.

Actually, obama revolt is the main reason they're losing it in 2010, so I don't see a lot of hope for him in 2012.

One happy thought is that once Obozo is out of office, he will have to spend the rest of his life being jeered at and insulted in public.

obama is toast in 2012 and he doesn’t care. He wants to leave the house in shambles when he leaves.

He thought he could blame Bush forever.

Shocker to him when that train left the station.

Now, election 2010 is a referendum on HIM and his democrat congress..

Well, another scenario the bad guys are hoping for is the GOP, in power after 2010(at least enough to be be blamed) will do what they do best: fumble the friggin' ball.

The ObamaCRATS figure they'll be around in 2012 to pick up the fumble and score a touchdown.

Our only hope: Elect true conservatives, not RINOS. RINOS will guarantee an ObamaCRAT victory in 2012.

A happier thought would be Obama in the stocks being jeered and pelted with rotten tomatoes. :-)

In other words, he believed in Obama, too, and now realizes that he helped put into office someone who didn't really care about governing, but just wanted to rule by edict, surround himself with unconfirmed "czars," and enjoy the perks of office to an extravagance never seen before.

“Breaking”? Been obvious for months. Only far-left RATS like MSNBC are still singing the praises of Obama.

I look for Obama and his MSM stooges to play the race card every day, blaming white folks for not supporting him, and I mean even more than they already are.

He has already accomplished some huge goals for the Collectivists: he grabbed the health care system and 2 car companies, and shoveled nearly $1 trillion to his buddies.

He has also made millions of Americans permanently dependent on Federal aid who were not before.

So he can sit back and take the scorn, knowing that collectivism is much closer to its final goal. He’s been a good comrade.

“some of those close to him is that he might not really want to go on in 2012, that he might not really care.” “

Sounds like George Senior in 92.

I never never could figure that out.

An R win in 2010 will help Obama in 2012, because he will once again have an Enemy to Blame. It will be gasoline on the fire of “the Party of No”.

Let us hope.

I don’t believe Obama has ever had any real intentions to seek re-election in 2012. In mid-to-late 2011 he will announce he is not running again, and we’ll have Hillary as the opponent come 2012.

Exactly. We must fight like we’re 21 points down in the 4th Quarter.

I think he's looking forward to playing golf everyday and then shuffling home to another gourmet dinner.
