It occurs to me that B. Hussein’s road trip didn’t work according to plan. I have the feeling that Hussein might have been drinking too much of his own Kool-Aid. My impression was that Hussein expected the people of Jerusalem to be holding palm branches when he came to visit the Wailing Wall (didn’t happen). Likewise, his speach at the Wailing Wall was supposed to be another Sermon on the Mount (it was a nonevent). My impression was that Hussein wanted a Star Wars finale in front of the Brandenburg Gate with Angela Merkel pinning a medal on him like Princess Leia honoring Luke Skywalker (that didn’t happen either).

After it was all said-and-done, Hussein received no up-tick in the popularity polls (the whole exercise was a waste of time). I’m also getting the impression that some of the MSM is getting a little tired of Hussein doing the empty hype routine.

Is it possible that Hussein has “Jumped the Shark” before the Democrat Party Convention?
