It’s interesting that Obama’s white support dropped precipitously last summer roughly during the period when his surrogates engaged in the first heavy wave of calling his critics racists. Thus ended the “post-racial” presidency that never was.

The fall-off in Hispanic support probably comes from nothing more complicated than their vulnerability to bad economic conditions. The Democrats cannot possibly shovel enough free cheese their way to make up for the loss of economic vitality that rewards participation. Obama is redistributing poverty, not wealth.

His black support remains because he is the ultimate investment of black pride. That’s a shame.

Obama has made bad conditions worse and he and his gang are now flailing their arms with the message that it would be so much worse without them. But he never shuts up. He’s out there every single day it seems, droning on in that awful way of his.

The first time I ever really got worried about America was when the economy was wriggling like a wharf rat on the end of a longshoreman’s pitchfork with the hypeinflation back in ’79-’80. That looked like we were turning into something other than America.

This looks much worse. Much, much worse, because the goose that lays the golden eggs is in the oven and the chef that put her there is in the White House.

God save America.
