Something is definitely happening here. The most recent example was Leon Panetta who absolutely ripped Obama with regard to his decision to leave no troops in Iraq. We have now reached the point where the stench of incompetence and defeat is overpowering.\u00a0 The following quote from John Kennedy is appropriate:<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>\u201cVictory has a thousand fathers, B<\/em><\/strong><strong><em>ut defeat is an orphan.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not defeat in just one area, defeat in every possible way on every possible issue.\u00a0 They have run out of lies or at least out of believable lies. For example once again the unemployment rate dropped miraculously below 6% just before the election.\u00a0 But this time the media just yawned, probably because we have more people not working than at any time in the last 36 years.<\/p>\n<p>Few, liberal or conservative, Democrat or Republican, believe this President any more.\u00a0 There is a residual group of Kool-Aid drinking habitually uninformed Democratic voters still on board, but not enough.\u00a0 The latest Fox News poll shows devastating changes in key demographics:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/interactive\/2014\/09\/11\/fox-news-poll-gop-has-advantage-in-upcoming-midterm-election\/\">http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/interactive\/2014\/09\/11\/fox-news-poll-gop-has-advantage-in-upcoming-midterm-election\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Obama is losing ground among women, blacks and Hispanics.\u00a0 Just a few years ago many conservatives thought that Republicans would never win another national election because of changing demographics.\u00a0 That was based on the assumption that Democrats would continue to automatically get a majority of women, an overwhelming majority of blacks and a huge majority of Hispanics.\u00a0 Thanks to this administration, Democrats have lost significant support in each of these groups.<\/p>\n<p>If this poll is accurate we are going to see a 2014 wave election of tsunami proportions.\u00a0 When you add in Democratic apathy and Republican enthusiasm it gets even worse.\u00a0 Now we have an Ebola epidemic and few trust this administration to handle this crisis.\u00a0 If you can\u2019t remember to lock the front door to the White House it is hard to have faith in your ability to protect anyone.<\/p>\n<p>Only one person could make this worse for Democrats and that is President Barack Obama. He said that even though he is not on the ballot, this election is all about him. That sound you heard was Democrats running tough re-election fights throwing up all over the country.<\/p>\n<p>Piers Morgan who is wrong about most things may be right in saying that when Obama threw the intelligence community under the bus he reached a tipping point. He now has as many enemies within his administration as he has on the outside. We may see an avalanche of people in the know dumping on Obama.\u00a0 They are not just deserting the ship.\u00a0 They are shooting at it on the way out.<\/p>\n<p>TDM<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you noticed something lately?\u00a0 People close to this administration are turning on it.
