Obama seems unable to restrain himself. On the downhill slope of his time in office, Obama best serves himself and the Dems by trying to boost his approval rating and the strength of the economy. It is hard to imagine a competent political professional recommending that Obama take shots at any of the GOP candidates. In doing so, Obama diminishes himself and elevates the candidate whom he attacks because the news media usually gives the candidate a chance to reply and, in effect, briefly share the country’s attention with Obama.
‘Pathological’ narcissism will do that to ‘ya .... Obama is so thin-skinned and threatened by Walker that he just couldn’t help himself. I’m sure he particularly hates Walker as well because Walker has pretty much destroyed the union machine in his state & beat the Dems/Unions on several occasions. He’s fearless, something ‘Obama the Pantywaist’ is not.
