The Rats' Chicago outfit started grooming him very early and cleared his political path, all the way up until they finally had to take on the Clintons. And then they won, and won again after McCain effectively muzzled our best hope in 2008.

This piece sums it up nicely:

Sarah Palin, Barack Obama, And The Cost Of Fighting Chicago Thug Politics

And don't forget this...

The Republican Party never had a chance with its current spineless leadership.

media refused to vent

[OKSooner]

Republican Fecklessness, incarnated in John McCain and his campaign of Feckless Republicans, more willing to destroy Sarah Palin than the true enemy of this country and Israel.

Blame Bush has transitioned smoothly into blame republicans. Whethet they are in power or not, blame republicans. When Obama demands tax increases, says obamacare is not on the table, and in return offers to talk about some budget cuts at some point in the undefined future if he feels like it, and people look at that situation and blame the republlicans(!), then you know we’ve lost the media war.

a large swath of dependents
labor unions
fear mongoring
illegal immigration
voter fraud
a dirt stupid electorate
a compliant and complicit media

low opposition voter turnout
and of course, as mentioned above... free stuff

By 2005 it was too late to fix anything, Housing prices had reached levels they could never be sustained at. They were going to crash and the big fall started Sept 2007 with a brief suckers rally in mid 2008 when Bush and Bernake assured the country that the economy was sound.

In 2005 Bush was too busy taking credit for home loans to minorities with bad credit to propose reforms that would end his own programs.

GWB 2002 Speech :” More and more people own their homes in America today. Yet we have a problem here in America because fewer than half the Hispanics and African Americans own their own homes. That’s a home ownership gap; a gap that we got to work together to close. And by the end of this decade we’ll increase the number of minority homeowners (future Obama voters ) by 5.5 million families. “
“One of the major obstacles to minority home-ownership is financing. Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac (who I will bail out in 2008) have committed to provide more money for lenders, they committed to meet the shortage of capital available for minority home-buyers. Freddie Mac just began 25 initiatives around the country to dismantle barriers (like income requirements) and create better opportunities for home-ownership. One of the programs is designed to help families with bad credit histories to qualify for home ownership loans (by faking their income) . You don’t have to have a lousy home for first time home-buyers. You put your mind to it the first time low income home buyer can have just as nice a house as anyone else (till those adjustable rates go up then they can lose it to the bank).

The 10, 60, 30 rule.

10% of the voters wanted marxism. 60% of the voters wanted Santa Claus. 30% of the voters hate Republicans, and would vote for anyone else including Lenin.

Help from the America Pravda Media

[G Larry]

1- Dem vote fraud (about 2 Million critical votes)
2- Stupid conservatives who’s hate for Romney, blinded them to Obama’s evil intent for America. (about 3 million idiots)
3- Terrible messaging by Romney. (about 5 million “undecideds”)

We are under complete Soviet domination of media and entertainment as they planned long ago. The reason that we are not sent to the gulags for what we are posting here is because they realize that we are utterly powerless to change it.

I’ve been trying to figure that one out,too. Especially in the light of 9/11. I mean, for-cry-eye, there should have been such a level of distrust towards Muslims after that, that no one with a name remotely close to a muslim name should have been in any office! I mean, for pity sake, after WWII, politicians were shaving off their mustaches so people wouldn’t think of Hitler!!!

Normalcy Bias is the core answer to the question.

Were it not for this phenomenon of the human mind, Obama would NOT be president;

Were it not for Normalcy Bias, our national news media would still be the watchdog of our democracy.

Were it not for Normalcy Bias, our educational system would not have fallen to foreign communist influence.

Were it not for normalcy bias, the housing bubble of 2008 would have never happened... our national debt would not have doubled in a 4 year time span.

Normalcy bias is central to the strategies of a communist nation in their efforts to infiltrate and dismantle free societies.

Freedom cannot exist in an immoral society.

Patience has it’s rewards... even for communists.

And we still cannot accept the reality that our country is under attack from within. That would not be normal.

We have taken our freedom for granted, and we have dismissed God as our sovereign.

The loss of freedom is inevitable.

became another Vietnam, at least in the media

Bush had been so demonized by the media

The American Media - for making it possible for Democrats to continually blame Republicans

The Media tells them who to blame

They are an enemy of liberty. They have spent years dumbing us down so we can be spoon-fed their ideology. I don't believe conservatism can ever recover without an all out confrontation and victory against the media.

[EEGator]

Demographics and white guilt.

[Venturer]

The Media is totally to blame for Barrack Obama.

They still are.
