This Is Why He Fails...

It ain't rocket science, although it might as well be to the completely out-of-touch world of the far left-controlled democrat party. From an excellent column by Toby Harnden in today's Telegraph from Britain:

"Believing he would be a great president, Obama wanted to tackle what he saw as the grand issues, not the small-bore concerns of Americans struggling to make ends meet. Democrats controlled both houses of Congress, he calculated, so deal-making was not necessary. The problem was that his world view was that of a conventional liberal Democrat but he was president of a nation that was centre-right. His victory came from those who wanted him to change Washington, not America."

I couldn't have said it better myself. (And I love, BTW, the British spelling of "centre" -- Stop butcherin' the Queen's English, Britain!) We'll see ya Tuesday, Obama & The Dems.
