The New Comeback Kid: Obama’s comeback is occurring in his presidency a year ahead of Clinton’s

If Barack Obama wins reelection in 2012, as is now more likely than not, historians will mark his comeback as beginning on December 6, the day of the Great Tax-Cut Deal of 2010.

Obama had a bad November. Admittedly shellacked in the midterm election, he fled the scene to Asia and various unsuccessful meetings, only to return to a sad-sack, lame-duck Congress with ghostly dozens of defeated Democrats wandering the halls.

Now, with his stunning tax deal, Obama is back

Maybe Kraut is anticipating a massive RINO wimp out. That's the only thing that can frame him as the "come back kid". "NO COMPROMISE!"

“Charles is reverting back to his cyncical democrat ways and days. I think I’ll use Krauthammer as a *red* flag. Watch closely what he writes and says.”

I think- reading between the lines here- he’s really paranoid about a certain somebody being the GOP front-runner. He’s been that way for a while now, and it’s unfortunate.

That’s got to be the first time I’ve ever seen a paraplegic jump over a shark.

That boy’s got skills, I tell ya. Too bad he’s on the wrong team.

Buh-bye, Charles.

Obamao ain’t Reagan, not even equivalent in value to Reagan’s toe gum, and he ain’t Clinton either. He is like the worse parts of Carter magnified ten fold, only he needs a teleprompter to help him get there. A Republican House and Senate may have had an outside chance of salvaging things for Obamao, but certainly not the House by itself. There won’t be a Clintonesque type of recovery for Obamao, no matter how much Charles hits the crack pipe.

Pretty much right on all counts.

You'll have no disagreement from me. Furthermore, I'll grant that Charles is a daily reader of the American Thinker and that he read this column by James Lewis: The left sees history's fist coming. Again. , published, December 13, 2010.

Depends on which sort of rot you want to discuss. I've seen plenty.

I believe you are correct and those here who hold Mr. K in such high esteem best realize that the game is changing. Mr K and his compadres have held sway over manipulating the conservative message, but now are losing their mojo. They are marching forward toward their last gasp and it will be a great day when they open their mouths and there is no audience left to hear them spew their destructive message.

Humbug!

Media, Krauthammerites no exception, have been on a crusade to force-feed me on bama’s “smarts” and all I can think of is why they try so hard when all I see is a teleprompter specialist!

Mr. Krauthammer you’re wrong on your conclusion because obama is no Clinton. You see this country has never had a character like this fellow before. clinton was shellacked and unpopular at the end of his first two years and still rebounded, true, but there was differences between him and the present WH occupant. No one ever doubted clinton’s authenticity or legitimacy as an American. No one ever doubted his Christian heritage background — even if it was practiced superficially. No one ever wondered if his father was American, if his mother repudiated her country or not, if she was a Marxist or not.

You see Mr. Krauthammer, two years from now is not two years back. obama has a lot of baggage that public was blind to two year back. The next election there won’t be those murky mucky waters any longer. It’s clear clear waters going forward and the public is on to this fellow. He’s a one termer, mark my word.
