By MARK STEYN Syndicated columnist Excerpt from The Orange County Register

So what went wrong? According to Barack Obama, the problem is that he overestimated you dumb rubes’ ability to appreciate what he’s been doing for you. “That I do think is a mistake of mine,” the president told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. “I think the assumption was if I just focus on policy, if I just focus on this provision or that law or if we’re making a good rational decision here, then people will get it.”

The dummies just don’t understand Dear Leader.

Bush is somehow behind this.

So now he’s going to bring Plouffe back in to re-invent him as a populist, is that the plan? Heck yeah, us stupid rubes will fall for that - - again. Maybe some Greek columns are called for, and turn up the reverb...

“Just speeches...just words”....

Yep, that’ll work.

So the Obanination wants us to forget everything we have seen from him, his administration and the commicrats over the past year?

Too late! Obamination has already played his ace card and lost. We the People see the democrats and Pres__nt Obamination for who they are and We the People are saying NO!

Plouffe can't help you. So change if you want Mr. Obama. It's already too late. Besides, I don't think the Obaminations ego can handle any kind of makeover.

“He ran as something he’s not, and never has been: A post-partisan centrist trans formative healer.”

He's just a Community Organizer nothing more nothing less.

Funniest line in the article, referring to Obama’s stump to help Coakley, and his speech which fell flat:

He went to the trouble of flying in to phone it in.

We HEARD Obama. We UNDERSTAND what he's trying to sell.

WE ARE NOT BUYING.

The winged monkeys in the MSM are on board with this, now that it’s all crashing around their ears—

the douchebags at Esquire Magazine, who embarrassed themselves with their Lewinsky-like coverage before BO’s coronation-some of the writers are metrosexual self-loathing whites, along with a few clueless, racist blacks—all of them self-hating Americans—just came out with a load of steaming manure, in between telling unemployed Wall St. types about $750 shoes—Obama is our freakin’ father according to this writer—the “papa in chief”, if you will—and us “kids” need to get on board.
