Democrats Openly Alarmed About Obama's Reelection Prospects

Well, they should be.

At NYT, "Democrats Fret Aloud Over Obama’s Re-election." (Via Memeorandum.)

Democrats are expressing growing alarm about President Obama’s re-election prospects and, in interviews, are openly acknowledging anxiety about the White House’s ability to strengthen the president’s standing over the next 14 months.

Elected officials and party leaders at all levels said their worries have intensified as the economy has displayed new signs of weakness. They said the likelihood of a highly competitive 2012 race is increasing as the Republican field, once dismissed by many Democrats as too inexperienced and conservative to pose a serious threat, has started narrowing to two leading candidates, Mitt Romney and Rick Perry, who have executive experience and messages built around job creation.

And in a campaign cycle in which Democrats had entertained hopes of reversing losses from last year’s midterm elections, some in the party fear that Mr. Obama’s troubles could reverberate down the ballot into Congressional, state and local races.
More at that top link, but clearly, the Dems are going to be crushed.

And like Bill Whittle said, it's not going to matter who the GOP nominee is. Obambi's toast.

Obama is the reason, or one of many millions of reasons, why J D Salinger became a recluse toward the end of his life. As JD's hero in Catcher in the Rye hated phonies, Barry Soetero or whoever the Manchurian Candidate really is remains the biggest fraud/freak/fake/phony in the world and getting more ersatz by the minute. JD hid in the Vermont or NH mountains for decades to avoid the kind of contagion that Barack O"Bozo spreads like manure all over the marketplace of ideas.

A second term of this creepy POTUS and the famous poem about Ozymandias will also be correct about Obamandias. Complete and total poltical slavery and the US will be a second-tier economic power.
