One sure way to know that a reporter either doesn't know what he or she is talking about or is in complete denial is how they portray Obama. To wit, following the last election in which democrats were hammered some stories describe Obama as "humbled."
Obama humbled as U.S. voters rise up against THEIR arrogant elite: Crushing defeat for Democrats mirrors discontent in Britain
It is as amusing as it is wrong. "Humble" is not in the Obama lexicon. He is a sociopath- a narcissist on a galactic scale. Noting is ever his fault. Never is he wrong. That makes looking ahead at the next two years like looking into the toilet two days after the power goes out.
It ain't pretty.
Thing is, it's not just Republicans who are going to feel it. The Mail:
The man who once electrified the American nation with his soaring oratory – and titled his book on political philosophy The Audacity Of Hope – is now the lamest of ducks in the White House, mired in unpopularity and devoid of allies.In this election, Democrat candidates saw him as a liability rather than an asset – with most of them running away from him like scalded cats.
And he's going to make them pay. He's going to make all of us pay. Normal Presidents are humbled following an election that went badly for them.
Not Emperor Barackus Gluteus Maximus.
George W. Bush worked with the new Democratic-controlled Congress after the 2006 election to craft economic stimulus legislation. Bill Clinton in 1994 overhauled his political team and would work to craft a bipartisan welfare overhaul. After Republicans lost Senate control in 1986, Ronald Reagan brought in Washington insider Howard Baker, who had been Senate majority leader, to run his staff.
The clouds are gathering:
Whether out of frustration or political necessity, some of President Obama’s closest lieutenants from his first term are distancing themselves from Mr. Obama as 2016 approaches. The latest is none other than Vice President Joseph R. Biden, who usually boasts about the lack of daylight between the president and himself. The vice president let it be known last week that he was “ticked off” about the way the president forced out Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, a longtime Senate colleague of Mr. Biden’s. Mr. Hagel was pushed out in less than two years by a White House that is accused of micromanaging national security policy. Earlier this year, former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton criticized Mr. Obama’s stated principle of foreign policy: “Don’t do stupid stuff.”“Great nations need organizing principles, and ‘Don’t do stupid stuff’ is not an organizing principle,” Mrs. Clinton said in an interview.
Obama has burned through three Defense Secretaries and two - so far- of them have blasted him. Now Obama can't find anyone to take the job and why not? He sucks as a boss.
“Doormat” has been the job description for pretty much every Obama employee. The president bragged in 2008 that he would assemble in his cabinet a “Team of Rivals.” What he failed to explain to any of the poor saps is that they’d be window dressing for a Team of Select Brilliant Political Types Who Already Had All the Answers: namely, himself and the Valerie Jarretts and David Axelrods of the White House.These days, what able-minded Democrat would want to work for a boss who asks hires to check their brains at the door and then read from the talking points? Respected economist Christina Romer came in as Mr. Obama’s first head of his Council of Economic Advisers; she left after 18 months, tired of putting out imaginary numbers in support of the stimulus. Former Marine Commandant Jim Jones lasted about the same duration as national security adviser, until he wearied of saluting the political gurus.
Who wants to be Valerie Jarrett's next bi**h? Be sure to read the whole thing.
Now democrats are becoming vocal in their criticisms:

As if the last six weren’t?
bttt!
Live by the evil marxist wonk inner circle, die by the evil marxist wonk inner circle.
Amen Eagle ... May each of us mount up as Eagles. Thank You.
Think we should mark the day Obama leaves office as a national holiday. Similar to the 4th of July. Every time the US gets rid of an old executive, it should be celebrated. Take the day off from work. Go to a park.....oops go ice fishing. Play some indoor golf or put put. It will be one of the greatest days our nation ever experienced.
The Current Occupant was not so much “humbled”, as thrown an unpleasant surprise, and as such, tripped the adrenalin flow. Cornered rats are the most vicious fighters on the planet, partly because they realize there is absolutely nothing to lose. Even if an escape door were made available to the cornered rat, it will still choose to continue to display defiance, as it is unable to encompass the idea that there could even be an escape.
Surrender is clearly not an option.
I hope the LIBs continue to p.o. many, many more Citizens. Maybe some will awaken to the error of their LIB asshat ways. Maybe not. Either way...we’re in for a uncomfortable ride. To the victor go the spoils.
All of Obola’s DefSecs resented being micromanaged by Jarret et al. Susan Rice is now the defacto DefSec. No one else wants the job.
Well duh, DrJohn. The last six years were bad, so we can easily conclude that the next two years will be bad also.
Fools led by an idiot.
i see alien lizard people...
This will not be a “lame duck” period but rather a “stiff dxxx” period.
