Default State of the Obama Campaign

When you lose Maureen Dowd and Jackson Browne in the same day you have real problems.

Jackson Browne cools on Obama

Lost Maureen Dowd and gained Sarah Jessica Parker... traded a cow for a horse!

It is incredible to note how the media hides these fundraisers. If casual voters were to see these fundraiser stories it would be greeted with scorn. If this was Bush...

Republicans attack Obama over glitzy fundraisers

Some doofus on Fox News (a Dem strategist, I guess, I wasn't paying much attention) said that Obama has the election in the bag now that Romney is the presumptive nominee. After all, Romney represents evil corporations.

Hey, you ought to watch Beckel on "The Five". I think they keep him on just to show what a joke the left is. Even he admits that FOX won't fire him. O'Reilly has a couple of them too. But it's hard not to let them get under your skin. Look locally at luknikfan. His posts are like "Baghdad Bob", the announcer who was reporting how Iraq had the Americans on the run as they were entering his studio.

I watch it a couple of times a week. Poor Bob. He just looks so miserable. Monday, I think it was, he was yelling at the others asking if they were proud of taking away the CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS of works to collectively bargain. The others just looked kind of bemused, but didn't challenge him on his absurd notion that there is such a constitutional right. I find myself almost feeling sorry for ol' Bob.

Almost, but not quite. He brags of his bullying and other failures proudly. He never learns a thing. And when he let loose a four-letter-word on Hannity, he didn't feel he should have to apologize.

In Colorado Focus Group, Obama Voters Disillusioned

Last night, veteran Democratic pollster Peter Hart conducted a focus group featuring 12 undecided, ticket-splitting voters in Colorado, which illustrated the tough challenge President Obama faces in winning a second term. He's lost significant ground among these swing voters: Ten of the participants voted for Obama in 2008; only three of them said they leaned towards re-electing him in 2012. In an initial survey taking leaners into account, Mitt Romney led Obama 5-3, with four completely undecided.

Obama's position is that he's done everything right, but things have just turned out wrong for other reasons.

Limbaugh was waxing eloquent on this topic this morning, and I think he was spot on. To whit, it is sinking thru the thick heads of the collective Obama campaign that things are unraveling enough that they can see defeat as a very real possibility.

So now the only question is whether or not the bigoted right will be out in force to hold their noses and vote for a Morman. Cuz the defeat of Obama will take all of us, moderate, hard right, religious bigots, etc. to make the necessary difference.

How long before Obama starts taking chickens and pigs, maybe a dairy cow, as a campaign donation?

Bad economic news even the NY Times can spin this.
Job Weakness Starts to Define Landscape of Election Year
By CATHERINE RAMPELL 4:21 PM ET

With Friday’s report showing the unemployment rate stuck at 8.2 percent, what looked like a blip has become a streak, and the economy is unlikely to pick up much before November.
