The media and the liberal elite pushed this guy down our throats. Six years later, when the whole world sees his ineptitude, they can’t understand how he went from “beloved” to abject failure, lol. Um, maybe because he WASN’T beloved by most of us?

Well, there was no substantive reason he was ever elected to begin with, so I suppose in some sense, that is true.

There are two Americas. One, consists of acedemia, media, and the political elite. The other is average folks. The former lives in a snug, tight bubble that locks out the rest of the country. They cannot understand why BHO has low approval numbers.

We have not lost the country. Americans do not want a European style social democracy. However, they still haven’t embraced conservatism. This is a golden opportunity for the GOP to show the public they learned their lesson from the Bush years and for those of us conservatives to teach. No more Doles, Bushes, Romneys, or McCains.

Repeated trauma to the rectum is the only explanation.
