OBAMA MAY PULL OUT

By DICK MORRIS
Published on TheHill.com on September 20, 2011

As bad news piles up for the Democrats, I asked a top Democratic strategist if it were possible that President Obama might "pull a Lyndon Johnson" and soberly face the cameras, telling America that he has decided that the demands of partisan politics are interfering with his efforts to right our economy and that he has decided to withdraw to devote full time to our recovery. His answer: "Yes. It's possible. If things continue as they are and have not turned around by January, it is certainly possible."

Just looking at Michelle Obama's unsmiling face during her husband's recent speech to Congress triggered an insight: These folks aren't having fun anymore.

Obama, whose insistence on passing a healthcare law that the courts will probably throw out cost his party the House, will now cost his party the Senate too.

Obama's historic race to the top in 2008 was animated by huge margins and turnouts among four key groups: African-Americans, Hispanics, Jews and young voters. New polling data and the results of the Brooklyn-Queens Turner-Weprin elections suggest that his base is decaying, chunk by chunk.

* An analysis of the past three Fox News surveys indicates that Obama's job approval rating among voters younger than 30 has declined to 44 percent. By combining the past three surveys, Fox News was able to accumulate data on 600 under-30 voters indicating a sharp decrease in the president's approval from his former supporters.

* According to Gallup, Obama's approval among Hispanics has also dropped to 44 percent. Aggregating data from recent polls, as Fox News did, Gallup concluded that the president's ratings among Hispanics were not much higher than among the general electorate.

* The election of Republican Bob Turner in the single most Jewish district in America -- one that had not gone Republican since the 1920s -- shows the decay in Obama's Jewish support. Alienated by his perceived anti-Israeli bias, Orthodox, Conservative and Reform Jews voted in massive numbers for Turner. Results in heavily Jewish areas reflected his desertion. But even such neighborhoods as Forest Hills, Queens, populated by Reform and Conservative Jews, showed the candidates running almost even.

Only the African-Americans remain of Obama's 2008 coalition. Surveys show his approval among blacks at higher than 80 percent, indicating no diminution of his enthusiasm there.

Yet the entire campaign strategy of the Obama people is to move to the left, fanning class warfare, to elicit strong liberal support. Rather than compensating for his loss of liberals by reaching out to independents and traditional swing voters, he just doubles down on his appeal to the left, further alienating the middle.

But the kind of enthusiasm Obama kindled in 2008 cannot be ignited easily by negative appeals.

I hope he doesn't pull out. This destroyer needs to stand for re-election and face the angry public. I personally want the satisfaction of seeing him get the "shellacking" he deserves. As far as I'm concerned he should be indited after leaving office and face charges for abuse of power.
Usurping Congress and the Constitution for starters.
Funneling taxpayer funds illegally too.
 
I wish his Dad had pulled out.
 
Dick "Prostitute toe sucker" Morris has Zero credibility. Sorry....just speaking the truth.
 
ugh.....

1st, he hasn't done anything illegal... so no, he shouldn't be indicted.
2nd, don't be so cocky... he's still in a very good position to win a 2nd term... and he very well may do just that.

sorry, i get a lil miffed at folks continually wanting presidents brought up on charges when they disagree with them.
Obama is not a criminal, nor is Bush.. Clinton is, but not Bush 1 or Reagan, or carter, or ford.. Nixon was.. Johnson wasn't, JFK wasn't.

Obama does stuff that i don't like.... every President i've been alive to see does stuff i don't like ( i was born during Ike's term)... i get over it, i don't want any of them in jail for doing what may well be the most difficult job in the country.
 
I kinda hope he does drop out, but only because I don't like the way the Republican race is shaping up.
I'm no fan of Obama's, but if Perry gets the nomination I'd love to see someone with common sense be able to step into the race.
 
Too late for Hillary to make a challenging run?
 
Did a guy called Dick really write an article about someone pulling out? :lol:
 
The president's approval rating is on a downward spiral. The economy is in the toilet. Liberal Democrats are unhappy and saying someone else should run. There is speculation that Obama might do a Lyndon Johnson move.

If the opposing party can't win with a rigged deck like that, how pathetic are they?

Yet, they seem determined to pull defeat out of the jaws of victory.

What a Hobsen's choice we have this time around.

Unless you actually have some sort of knowledge of a crime, calling for him to get 'indicted' is just plain goofy.

I cant see him stepping down. He has too much of an ego. I also think he will be reelected...one way or the other. I suspect there will be even more attempts to incite racial hatred by the CBC to try to get the black vote (despite the shocking reality that he hasnt paid their bills for them...and the black unemployment rate is soaring...and basically....the thrill of electing a black man is gone) and I am also betting on an executive order sometime June/July time from granting amnesty and voter rights to all illegals.
 
he's not going to pull out of the race and anyone who think he's in such a bad position that he should is an alarmist, at best.
 
Dick Morris is a complete idiot. Obama has no intention of pulling out of anything, let alone the 2012 election.

He is in it to win it..and if things keep going as they are he is gonna win it.

:2dance:

I detect bias in this post. ;)

While it may be true, and probably is, that Obama is a lackluster president that has lost the support of the American people.... the Republicans haven't exactly wriggled their way into the People's good graces either. To the contrary, they are even less popular than the Dems.

Me, I'm voting third party.

That's really the key. Who the republicans pick will mean a lot.

If you spent six years, day in and day out, researching who has been the most wrong pundit ever, you would find Dick Morris at the end of that task. That man, is an idiot.

George W. Bush most certainly is a criminal, so much so that he had to cancel a trip to Switzerland to avoid being prosecuted:

George W. Bush Cancels Swiss Trip as Rights Activists Vow War Crimes Charges - ABC News

He's a war criminal, especially for his authorization of the use of torture.
 
Dick Morris? :lol: :lol: :lol:

And he beats every republican candidate in head to head polling.

Dick Morris, the man who predicted Hillary Clinton vs Condaleeza Rice as the two primary winners in 2008...yeah, I think I am not going to bet money on his ideas.

Has there ever been a person in history more perpetually wrong than Dick Morris? I'm not sure I've ever seen him predict something that actually happened.

if Dick Morris predicted rain sometime in the next year, I'd lock my umbrella in a safe.
 
I just read today that over 1 million more Americans are insured today because of "ObamaCare". Apparently he has already had a positive impact on this country. What have the republicans done that has been positive? Oh, right, they got us downgraded by Moody's.
 
So if I made unwed pregnancies a felony, should I receive praise and worship if the teenage pregnancy rate drops?

Accomplishment by force is not worthy of bragging.

I do not know that the two are comparable. Would it not be a better to liken our our roads system or maybe Medicare/Medicaid to it? Those are forced government programs that we all pay into that help make our country a better place to live.
