Re
Obama: Even Some Democrats Saying “Enough!”
By Allan Erickson / 22 July 2012 / 46 Comments
The United States is on the brink of complete transformation,
changes feared by prominent Democrats. They warn if trends continue the damage
will be irreparable. Imagine: liberals warning about liberalism on meth
amphetamine leading to the destruction of the Democrat Party, and the country.
Hyperbole?
Read on.
Dr.
Douglas Schoen has been a political advisor, strategist and pollster for 30
years. In 1996 he was Bill Clinton’s campaign consultant.
Patrick
Caddell is a political consultant and pollster. In 1972 he worked on the
McGovern campaign. In subsequent years Caddell worked to elect Jimmy Carter,
Gary Hart, Joe Biden and Jerry Brown.
Schoen
and Caddell, writing together, published an article in the Wall Street Journal
on November 21, 2011. It was titled: “The Hillary Moment—Obama can’t win by running a
constructive campaign, and he won’t be able to govern if he does win a second
term.”
The
lead paragraph reads:
“When Harry Truman and Lyndon Johnson accepted the reality that
they could not effectively govern the nation if they sought re-election to the
White House, both men took the moral high ground and decided
against running for a new term as president. President Obama is facing a
similar reality—and he must reach the same conclusion.”
The
final paragraph reads:
“If President Obama is not willing to seize the moral
high ground and step aside, then the two Democratic leaders in
Congress, Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, must urge the president not to
seek re-election—for the good of the party and most of all for the good of the
country. And they must present the only clear alternative—Hillary Clinton.”
This
is unprecedented: Democrats at this level calling on Obama to step down almost
a year ago. And they have not backed down from arguing that this President is a
threat to both the country and their Party.
Caddell,
writing for Breitbart several days ago, actually
called Obama an incompetent liar, then coached Republicans how to defeat him!
Describing
the corrupt political class that forced Obamacare on the country, and the
legislation itself a “crime against democracy,” Caddell challenged Republicans.
“Some Republicans are worried that the fight over Obamacare
distracts from the issue of the economy. What these Republicans fail to realize
is that healthcare and the economy are inextricably linked; Americans now
realize that Obamacare was a detour on the road to economic recovery, so to
remind them of one is to remind them of the other. And the two issues,
compounded, are all the more powerful.”
Obviously
Caddell relishes an Obama defeat.
