Democrats turning on Obama in (semi) private
American Thinker ^ | May 25, 2014 | Thomas Lifson

Wow, it’s finally happening. Democrats are catching on and turning on President Obama, at the moment off-the-record, but that won’t last for long if another midterm “shellacking” takes place in early November. Daniel Halper reports in The Weekly Standard.

CNN's John King reports that Democrats are privately calling President Obama "detached," "flat footed," and "incompetent."

If King is hearing about it, then it isn’t completely private. Maybe “off the record” and “not for attribution,” but not private when a journalist gets wind of it.

They’re not turning on Obama.

The first step to fixing something is being honest with one’s self.

This is going to get very tricky for Democrats, since their black voter base, which accounts for roughly a quarter of their national vote, remains loyal to Obama.

So black voters remain loyal to their black president despite overwhelming evidence of incompetence, coupled with unprecedented corruption. But, Republicans are the racists.

They (other Democrats) did not leave Obama.

Obama left them. Choking and stumbling in the dust.

“Kicked to the curb” comes to mind.

Or, perhaps this is a ploy to distance Democrats from the mess Obama has created. They have to do it.

I’vee been saying for the last several years that Obama is going to go down hard, and that it will be the Democrats that finally take him down, not the Republicans

IMO if The Bamster ran again he would get at least 95% of the black vote.

I don’t buy this story.

The Democrats have extraordinary Party discipline.

They NEVER turn on one of their own.

They have more than discipline, actually.

They also have wide scale agreement on Party principles and Party goals.

The democrats can’t agree on how fast to declare martial law, suspend all future elections and start building ovens. They all know they’re nazis, they just cant get that marching in step thingy down.

Pure theater to save them in the mid-terms; saw it two years ago when they did the same thing. No resounding support for the token Muslim fron any Dems except those in the safest of ditricts...

These clowns need to check their own ‘detachment’ issues if they’re just now figuring it out, six years in! Morons.

Absolutely.

The media and the democrats keep whining that the TEA Party is trying to drag the GOP to the right, but the Left is now chock full of the most rabid, left wing loonies this country has ever seen.

When Pelosi "drained the swamp" the moderate dems were gone and all that is left are the most vile bottom-dwellers and parasites that should never see the light of day

Don’t you think those demonic-rats are just looking to protect their own butts?

I mean, the Marxist hasn’t given them much, so no loyalty to him is owed and they’re all power hungry regardless.

To each his own. They love D.C. and power, first and foremost.

Corrupt b#stards all.

HA. They will only appear to be mildly annoyed with The Won [pbuh] until the day after the mid terms.

Our first affirmative action president with his affirmative action wife....that's how she got into Princeton
+What do you expect? Delusional white liberal have been kissing their butts for years and telling us how brilliant they are mostly because Obama was black, young and hip. They could care lesds that Onama had zero executive and managerial experience. That he a zero résumé. All that mattered was that Omama was a good speaker    (I thought he was an awful speaker)
