“”This is a major incident and Obama blew it big time.””
Sorry to disagree with you. I think Obama will get a huge bounce from this. People forget when the Iranians took over the embassy in 1979, Carter’s approval rating surged and remained high for 6 months. Failure of the GOP to back up Romney makes him look weak. Ryan’s statements certainly don’t help. People aren’t going to throw out Obama who has 4 years foreign policy experience for two guys who have none if the world blows up. Intrade has Obama surging above 62%. This event could be the die that seals obamas victory.
Comeuppance will come, but not this soon.
Sadly I agree with you
Mushy independents will flock to Obama now
Trying to convince others here gets you labeled a Obama supporter
I don't think Carter had already been through quite as much controversy as Obama.
I think this will hurt Obama with a public already unsure of his abilities...particularly because he's supposed to come up with defense cut plans (already a week late). I do believe he's not going to know what to do.
