Have you read the book? I'm wondering if it reveals new stuff about our boy leader.

It's amazing that, after 4 years, the fringes of the left are still claiming that everything is W's fault, not the guy currently in office - and will continue to be so for *at least* the next 2 years.

OK...so by using that logic, I suppose we should be giving all the credit of the most prosperous Clinton years to George Bush the senior?

Course, a monkey wrench comes flying in when one realizes that W inherited a recession from Clinton, yet that's all W's fault according to the left fringes. So I guess if it's bad, it's the fault of the last Republican, but if it's good, it's the fault of the current Democrat?

OK, let's play percentages, shall we?

Romney said, accurately, that President Obama had not raised taxes in the last four years. That moment of candor undercut the Romney/Ryan tickets messaging big time.

Review & Outlook: The 10% President - WSJ.com

The article perfectly encapsulates why President Obama is probably going to win re-election.

Conservatives continue to run against faux President Obama.

Many conservatives think that the rest of the nation already sees or are open to seeing President Obama in the distorted manner in which conservatives see President Obama.

Conservatives tell each other these same distorted fantasy beliefs about faux President Obama until these distorted fantasies become orthodoxy amongst conservatives.

As a result, conservatives believe that when they discuss faux President Obama with these fake stories that they are being effective and hurting the President.

Nobody else cares.
