Dana Milbank has a good summation of what he calls Obama's "Junius Horribilis":
"Job growth has stalled, the Democrats have been humiliated in Wisconsin, the attorney general is facing a contempt-of-Congress citation, talks with Pakistan have broken down, Bill Clinton is contradicting Obama, Mitt Romney is outraising him, Democrats and Republicans alike are complaining about a "cascade" of national-security leaks from his administration, and he is now on record as saying that the "private sector is doing fine." Could it get any worse?
Early Monday morning, Obama learned that it could. His aides delivered the news to him that his commerce secretary had been cited for a felony hit-and-run after allegedly crashing his car three times over the weekend. [...]
For the White House, it was just the latest entry in the when-it-rains-it-pours ledger. This has been one of the worst stretches of the Obama presidency. In Washington, there is a creeping sense that the bottom has fallen out and that there may be no second term. Privately, senior Obama advisers say they are no longer expecting much economic improvement before the election.
Carney had the unenviable task of confronting the full arsenal of gloom at Monday afternoon's briefing."
The press, like a pack of wolves, is circling the injured Obama campaign, snapping and growling before moving in for the kill:

Now they got her going "populist"---those posh vacations and royal soirees of hers are a no-go with the unemployed hordes her husband created.
She was on the food network---and did a Letterman Top Ten.....that's for starters. Maybe the 2012 team'll get her on Dancing With The Stars.
The Odd Couple.
Ocascadulus!
The condition of the Obama campaign is not any where near the rosy picture this story paints!!!!!!!
I have the Robert Irvine episode DVR’ed. Haven’t seen it yet. This may be as sick-making as when I saw Paula Deen hug the cold-hearted Jimmy Carter on one of her earlier shows!
and he fully plans on leaving the tab to you, your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
Lord, come quickly.
They've been swimming in circles around and around, but not daring to take a bite, since those who have tried have been singled out for the almighty's wrath.
But now there's blood in the water and they are getting more bold. The surface is somewhat still now, but it's only a matter of time before the boiling, bloody froth.
People talk about the wheels coming off the bus, but this should be far more dramatic.
More like losing a propeller blade at full throttle and then watching the unbalanced spinning mass shake itself into oblivion.
We're not flying any more...we're crashing...start looking for a clear place to put it down...
All this time I thought he was talking about Marcus Junius Brutus' kid brother.
The Nobel prize winners will be announced before the election. The Norwegians are more likely to give Obama a second Peace Prize than to take away the one they gave him. Since they didn’t have a reason to give him the first one (other than that he was not George Bush), they don’t need a reason to give him another (he’s still not George Bush).
Gasp! And whom would the savior be, drafted at the last minute at a desperate convention, a reluctant hero to save the day?
See tag line. I have been calling this Clintonoid move since January.
In part because of what passes for "news" these days and the apparent lack of demand for true journalism, I'm thoroughly convinced a LOT of pain and suffering will have to happen before a majority of our fellow citizens wake up and give any serious thought to giving a damn about the direction we're headed.
Generations of blissful and willful ignorance—"fat, dumb and happy"—as a way of life will not be overcome by anything less than another Great Depression.
So I guess that makes Ohaha'S 2012 team---Axelrod, Rham and Robert Gibbs---the Kardashian sisters. Getting spray-tanned and their hair and nails done....... just like Kim, Kris and Khloe.
ROTFL
There, matched it with reality.
The White House in a panic is NOT something I look forward to seeing.
If Obummer reaches the point (read: when his advisors tell him) that any hope of winning re-election is lost, then the fireworks begin.
These domestic communists are NOT going quietly into that good night. They’ve been hoping and praying and struggling for decades to get their hands on the levers of power and now they have them. They won’t relinquish power without a fight.
Any side bets on when the “national emergency” is declared? I expected the middle of October but now I’m thinking September, or possibly sooner.
Yes.

CAN IT GET ANY WORSE FOR OBAMA? Job growth has stalled, his key legilsation---healthcare---is about to go kaputski, his stimulus flopped,the Democrats have been humiliated in Wisconsin, the attorney general is facing a contempt-of-Congress citation, talks with Pakistan have broken down, Bill Clinton is contradicting Obama, Mitt Romney is outfunding him, Democrats and Republicans alike are complaining about a "cascade" of national-security leak, and Obama is now on record as saying that the "private sector is doing fine."
Let's not forget the GSA conference scandal---symptomatic of Ohaha's freespending "spread the wealth" progressivism. Notice how practiced they are at govt fraud....indicating this was done over and over. Probably there is an internal Govt Fraud Network with all of 'em colluding in ways to bilk the taxpayers?
GSA official Jeff Neely, posing in photos posted on Google Plus by his wife Deborah, enjoying Wine and Soak in Spa Tub at posh Hotel during one of several tax-paid "Pre-Conference" Meetings. Apr 16, 2012. The eight pre-conference trips alone cost the government $130,000, according to the GSA investigation.
Neely also traveled to several other luxury resorts and to Hawaii. About 115 expensive IPads--- listed as "prizes" for the LV conference are missing---one was traced to Neeley's daughter who apparently does not work for the GSA. Inspector General Brian Miller has referred this case to the DOJ for possible criminal investigation.
That leaves them with other options. A contrived war. The plague. The zombie apocalypse. A total economic meltdown triggered at the right moment.
All likely scenarios including zombies.
My bet is economic collapse and plague.
