Mr. Obama’s bad showing in this debate did not surprise me a bit, and it has nothing to do with any strategy or the altitude in Denver.
Mr. Obama has never worked hard to achieve or obtain anything in his entire life. In the hard-left circles he has always carefully chosen to inhabit, everything has been handed to him by mindless liberals who swooned at the articulate African-American.
Once elected president, he was acutely aware that any and all of his tens of thousands of bald faced lies would be covered up and even praised by our utterly corrupt, simple-minded, pathologically dishonest media.
His self-absorption and vast ego fed on their zealous and continuous worship. And knowing the media would actively cover up any crime he commits, short of murdering somebody on live national television, he got lazy.
He is really, really not accustomed to anybody challenging him. He expects only continuous, mindless praise. He expects everyone to lie, cheat and sacrifice themselves for him. And he will do what he has done his entire life, which is to exert virtually no effort himself.
No, this was no surprise. You could wake me up from a dead sleep, spin me around 100x and pour a quart of vodka down my throat and I could beat The Disaster in a debate.
It is only going to get worse in the other debates. Romney/Ryan has to be careful not to trounce the Idiots too badly or else the women will start to feel sorry for them.
Bump!
Well said. Even in his his previous runs for senator,etc, he never really faced a challenge, because he and his supporters always used dirty tricks to take out the opposition before it got to that point. They knew he couldn’t face a challenge on equal ground, so they got rid of it first.
His years in the White House have made him complacent, he’s lived in a bubble of yes-men and sycophants.
McCain was no challenge because he was neutralised with the race card, and he folded. But that’s been so overplayed and worn-out, and Hussein has showed his own true racist face so clearly, that it’s not effective now.
So Romney, a truly smart man no matter if you agree or disagree with his stances, is the first real challenge Hussein has ever faced, and it showed in his sweating under the pressure.
You’re right, except for the part about being articulate. I don’t think he even qualifies in that regard, although he did sound a bit more articulate last night than on his “Homey” tape from 2007.
