The arranged optics of the Tucson response worked well enough, in comparison to his moonbat mind-slaves at NYT and Kos and suchlike, The Alleged Hawaiian looked and sounded quite Presidential…exactly as his team had gamed it to.
The problem was with the audience. I watched the Tucson speech, and the optics and aurals of the crowd cheering like it was at a basketball game or pep rally really hurt Obama.
Only the most dullard would miss the message that Obama represents those boorish yahoos in that hall.
This is no different than one of the optics that changed race relations in the 1990′s and led to the GOP ’94 victory and welfare reform…the video of those racist idiots at Howard University in DC leaping to their feet and lustily cheering OJ Simpson’s acquittal.
To this day those fools will never admit how much that little filmed carryings-on cost them.
So, The Alleged Hawaiian got an 8 point bounce in the polls? I wouldn’t extrapolate too much from it. A dead cat bounces 8 points if you drop it from high enough. A few vidoes of Nancy Pelosi speaking publicly would likely erode that 8 points right sharply.
And all the mellifluous oratory in the world by His Oneness isn’t going to help his case when gasoline and diesel are at and over $5.00 a gallon…with the attendant price increases in food and energy and everything else that gets done via diesel power.
Obama Chin Music doesn’t pay the mortgage, heat the house, put food on the table or fill the gas tank, see?
If the Senate, which is well aware of what happened to House DemocRat members in “non-safe” gerrymandered seats, bucks Harry Reid and actually votes to repeal Obamacare, that will leave The Alleged Hawaiian a pretty stark choice of either killing his own signature legislation or casting a veto against the entire government aand expressed will of the electorate…he won’t be looking very Presidential THEN.
Obama actually has to do more than makee-talkee to get things done now, he’s fresh out of friends and allies in the Congress. Very few of those primadonnas are going to carry his water for him.
And working hard isn;t Obama’s long suit…I mean, when has he HAD to?
Believe me,I’d rather have OUR problems than THEIRS.
