Obama has no chance

If the ability to get press was the benchmark of a successful presidential candidate then Barack Obama is wildly successful. But if substance of comment is to mean anything so far, he's a colossal failure:

"The day that this president steps down, the entire world will breath a sigh of relief," said attacking President Bush.

Now wait, most people around the world supposedly hate Bush, right? So why is he a failure for saying that?

He clearly said "entire" world, not "most of" the world. That's an inclusive comment that would include people like the Mullahs in Iran, al Qaeda in Iraq, bin Laden and Zawahiri, Qauddafy, and Chavez, don't forget Castro, Putin and Kim Jong. A pretty dumb thing to say especially when troops are in the field, but it's similar to Boxer calling the Commander-in-Chief a loser.

I don't make predictions here very often, but Obama is going to be on the leading edge of a backlash in the not too distant future. And Hillary will benefit.

By the way, made some changes in the blog and am now having hosting problems. Figures.

After reflecting on the above post it's possible I misinterpreted Obama's meaning. By saying "breathe a sigh of relief" maybe he meant the terrorists and tinhorns would be relieved that their tormentor was gone and the good ole days were about to return.
