I was going back through some of my old postings to different threads and I found the live thread of day 2 of the DNC of 2004. This was the day that Obama was the keynote speaker. The comments start at post 1671 and go on through about 1950. Some of the comments I found to be surprising and some prophetic.
That old thread is quite interesting - particularly those FReepers who could see that Obama was more than a lapboy for Kerry. Just as interesting is how some FReepers even went as far as saying he would make a good republic ....basically, Obama's oratory skill/illusion had managed to make them see him as a viable choice on our side, if he could 'only jump the aisle.' That was a major danger sign.
Going forward, the good news is that his illusions and obfuscation are starting to wear thin at the edges, and already buyers remorse is setting in. He oversold, overpromised, and evidently cannot deliver.
LOL! I must have been drinking heavily that evening.
Not to rip fellow Freepers but.......
O still has 3 plus years left in this term to turn it around. Once they figure out he is overexposed and back off on his being out there every day....his poll numbers could go back up again.
3 years is a eternity in politics.
