Bam, wake up & smell the disaster

BOSTON -- The Republican knockout victory here last night should be a Code Brown alert for President Obama.

It was a political earthquake of equal magnitude to the temblor that crushed Haiti.

Amid the aftershocks and bewilderment, however, it appears that Obama -- Mr. Hope and Change who was inaugurated one year ago today -- may not fully grasp just how personally responsible he is for the thrashing here in the Democratic heartland.

Even before voters had finished voting, Obama's minions got busy dumping all over Martha Coakley for her terrible campaign.

The instant blame game revealed a White House deeply involved in Machiavellian tactics against its own party that would make Dick Nixon blanch.

However terrible the "Chokely" campaign may have been, make no mistake: Obama owns this.

The opportunity he earned one year ago cannot be overstated.

He came off an election victory so historic and spectacular that even Republicans got caught up in the euphoria.

His party's control in the House was unquestioned; their power in the Senate unstoppable.

I don’t think he’s capable of grasping what has happened.

Hey! Don’t clue him in! We want an ambush, and the opponent must be kept blind...if you want to win in 2010 and 2012.

Now is the time to put on additional pressure. Lets get the idiots out of office as quickly as possible. Keep working.

Notice that Coakley's fall just happens to follow the sleazy senate deals like the Ben Nelson payoff.

That’s my biggest fear, that we now think we’ve won and can sit back.

NO WAY! I just sent my crap senator who’s up in November an email that he is next.

DO NOT LET UP, FOLKS! We’ve only just begun!

An independent exiting the polling station was asked why he voted for Brown; his answer:

"To Save America!" - Thanks Massachusetts!

” may not fully grasp”

Someone with a brain will have to explain it to him. Several times. And it still won’t sink in to that thick skull!

He’s not. His ego would never allow it. On Drudge this morning it says “Obama pledges full speed ahead on healthcare”.

There is no way out of this for him. To know he wasted an entire year and political capital on this to walk away with nothing? No, he will not let it go even while watching the Democrats and America destroyed in the process. Remember, to a narcissist, HIS value is all that matters.

I think he’s too much of an ideologue to ever let his dream die. And to top it off, I’m not sure he’s emotionally stable.

Especially after the real implications of last night sink in.
