I’m going to have to agree with you Mr. Simon.

I’ve long felt that Obama’s biggest problem was that he never had to deal with failure, never had to deal with someone telling him no.

And no the US public has clearly and increasingly said no to him.

In Obama’s mind this wasn’t supposed to happen. Look at his rote response to any of his programs “Sure they complain now, but they’ll love it once we pass it.”

The sad part, the tragic part is that cornering Obama like this and risking his cornered thrashings is sill the better result.

The only alternative would be for the US to stay enthralled and for Obama to get everything he wished for.

Strange times.
