I don’t think he will go away. Can you imagine him being quiet and classy like GW has been? He will be a thorn in Romney’s rear end.

A STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE-—When 2008 Barack Obama campaigned, he proclaimed “I am running for president to tell the lobbyists in Washington that their days of setting the agenda are over. They have not funded my campaign. They won’t work in my White House.” Despite this vainglorious promise, Obama hired over 50 lobbyists in his administration.

Self-serving Obama uses the US Treasury as an open checkbook for his supporters who he rewards taxpayers’ expense.... But-—Obama says he wants everyone to “play by the same rules.” Remember when Michelle Obama received a $100,000 raise at her Chicago nonprofit job shortly after then-Sen Obama obtained generous govt assistance for her employer (used to be known as money laundering). And the beat goes on:

EXHIBIT A-—Obama vetoed the Canadian pipeline, causing a loss of thousands of construction jobs——that benefited his biggest financial supporters, Warren Buffett, who just happened to buy an interest in the railroad that will deliver the oil-—instead of the pipeline.

EXHIBIT B-—Obama’s Defense Department rejected a multibillion-dollar aircraft contract to a US manufacturing company and instead awarded it to a Brazilian company in which the same fundraiser has an interest.

EXHIBIT C-—Another Obama fundraiser benefited from a $528 million taxpayer loan for Solyndra which promptly went bankrupt, leaving the taxpayers with massive losses (contrary to standard lending practices, Obama’s supporters, not the taxpayers, had the only claim to the firm’s assets. Can you say money laundering?). Not to mention financing other so-called losing “green companies”
controlled by Obama supporters who received taxpayer loans and proceeded to go bust.

EXHIBIT D-—Obama halted Gulf oil drilling in violation of court orders. Do workers forced out of their jobs think he was playing by the rules?

EXHIBIT E—Obama talks a lot about the economy, but says only things that make him look good. The whoppers keep on coming-—now seeking reelection he says taxpayers got back every dime used for TARP to rescue the financial system, and also passed a “historic law” to end taxpayer-funded Wall Street bailouts for good.

He keeps forgetting to say US taxpayers are still owed big bucks for the billion dollar bailout of the financial industry. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac together owe taxpayers over $140 billion.
