Obama losing with 'win the future'?
Politico44 ^ | 02/24/11 | MATT NEGRIN

The White House’s theme for this week — and the week before, and the one before that — has been all about “winning the future.” President Obama has mentioned his new favorite catch phrase so often in the last month that you’d think he was being paid for each reference.

In fact, when Obama now makes a speech, he’ll do so in front of a small backdrop with the words “winning the future” streaming across it. Talk about message discipline:

At Penn State, on Feb. 3: “These are places where the future will be won.”

In Cleveland, on Tuesday: “Winning the future involves out-educating, out-innovating, out-building, out-hustling everybody else.”

At a Baltimore middle school, on Valentine’s Day: “Over the last few weeks, I’ve traveled the country, talking about what we need to do to win the future.”

By our count, Obama has sung his battle cry — or some variation of it — nearly 40 times since his State of the Union address on Jan. 25. (By the way, in that speech, he mentioned in 10 times.)

We have an affirmative-actioned high school valedictorian as POTUS.

Lucky us.

I’d love to see the members of the focus group that gave WTF a big thumbs-up.

LOL. I predict that Obama will soon leave off with his new slogan precisely because of how Palin tagged it.

Those 3 letters doom the program from the get-go. People are so distracted by the letters, they ignore the content.

History will record this as a not-shining moment for the immaterial President.

I’d say WTF goes in the same category as the infamous Russian “reset button”.

“Win the Future” implies we have lost or are losing in the present. Which is the case. Other than winning elections Hussein cannot point to any “wins” of any significance in his past or in the present. He must redirect attention to the future where only marvelous things await us if we just trust him. Heh.
