All I can say is I can see it’s working. There are signs of it everywhere.

A few have even resurfaced here at PJM making snarky remarks after having disappeared for awhile. They’re nervous. And Team Obama is making excuses/throwing what jabs they can on the cable shows.

They know the numbers are showing a downward trend. At the very least, BO didn’t get the bump he’d hoped to get. Some big mistakes were made on the road, and they’ve got to clean up the mess.

You could see it on BO’s face today when asked about McCain’s recent attacks – he doesn’t like it. Not one little bit. Especially when ridiculed. Kind of detracts from the aura. I think a great ad could be made of the comparison someone made of BO to the fabled rooster who thought he brought up the sun each day.

And it looks like the Man Upstairs isn’t answering BO’s much publicized prayer. (Was it really given to the news media BEFORE finding its place in the Wall as an article at American Thinker says? That’s gonna hurt, if true.)

He asked the Lord to help him guard against pride. A tall order, to be sure.

Not that God isn’t able. But reading Dana Milbank at the Washington Post (linked at Riehl World) makes me think God is doing what He usually does. When He knows the (lack of) sincerety behind the request.

And I just keep thinking of the dollars being spent on security for this clown. In that article, though he’s not even president, he’s shutting down roads already as he makes his way to “meet” with people. Is he demanding this? Who the heck does he think he is?

Just imagine if he is elected and being young, we’ve got to pay for security beyond his years in office – and all those extra pension dollars too. I don’t think we can afford to elect this guy. Somebody’s gonna have to break it to him. We’ve got a budget to balance.
