Now the L.A. Times seems to joining in, wondering if Obama lost his mojo.
Despite slavish coverage of his trip to Europe and the broad support of the media, the L.A. Times notes that polls are frozen–when Obama should be “breaking away.”
“Obama has not picked up any ground against McCain on foreign issues,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. “And some 52% think McCain would do a better job than Obama on the war in Iraq — virtually the same number who felt that way in April.”
Other polls show the same stubborn one-digit lead holding for the Democratic nominee-to-be with only 96 days left until the general election. Some crucial state polls even show McCain gaining.
After rehearsing Obama’s many advantages–fresh face, Americans want a change, speaking abilities to make Cato the elder weep with envy–the writer reluctantly raises the arrogance issue.
Is there a simmering concern over arrogance by the Ivy League lawyer and mere candidate who so blithely patted the French president on the back for a well-done news conference? Asked the other day if he ever doubted himself, Obama replied smartly, “Never!” And grinned broadly. Sounded more like a 20-year-old than someone about to turn 47 next week.
Or, put another way, Americans do not want to vote for someone who looks down on them. Obama needs to get in front of this before perceptions harden.
BOZO OBAMA SAID A FEW TIMES OF LATE:
“…(sic)They want you to be afraid of
me. They say I have a funny name. They
say I don’t look like the other presidents on the $1 bill or the $5. bill.”
OK OBAMA WE ARE AFRAID OF YOU.
REMEMBER YOU ARE THE ONE THAT
HAS BEEN CHANGING YOUR NAME.
YOU HAVE BEEN: Barack OBAMA
Barack Soertoro
Barry Soertoro
Barack OBAMA.
And, you refuse to show us a
birth certificate showing what
name appears on such.
As for your good looks…how ‘
about giving your caucasian
mom some credit and not just
the Black side of the family.
There is a great deal that you should
have done before you ran for president.
One thing was: ‘not to be talking all
the time and never giving the voters a
chance to ask a question.’

Tess, the birth certificate thing has been laid to rest; it´s a non-issue. What worries me is Obama´s politics and attitudes, not his name. And there´s enough to worry about. No need to go down every dead end.
Laid to rest? I haven’t seen one yet have you? Did I miss something, we still can’t prove he’s a natural born citizen…..good job America!!!!
