Who should Democrats blame next?  subscribe via RSS
 I'm
sure you're prepared to answer today's question with a list of
people and institutions that are responsible for navigating our
ship of state and its inept captain into the dire straits in
which we now find ourselves.
In this third year of their failed administration,
with no improvement in sight, most Democrats continue to portray
themselves
as victims of everyone but themselves to a greater extent
than ever before.
Your keep-'em-honest list would probably include...

|
- Power-drunk
liberal
legislators
- George Soros
- The mainstream media
- Big Labor

But as reality
closes in on the Democrats they are becoming more paranoid and
claustrophobic. Lefties, from the TV comedy pundits to
established liberal newspaper editorialists, have actually begun
to bash their Dear Leader's inadequacies, some by promoting the
idea of a primary challenge to his incumbency in hopes of
somehow reversing the backlash juggernaut that will, otherwise,
re-Republicanize the White House.
 "We
should have gone with Hillary!"
is the latest victims' lament.
Had the First Lady of
Pants Suits been elected instead of Obama it is inconceivable that her approval numbers would
be as low, today, as
her boss's are. Perhaps not as a result of any great accomplishments
(as my fellow former Clinton
constituents well know, Hillary had a lackluster Senate record)
but because it is also inconceivable that each and every
piece of gold she ever touched as president would have turned to
straw
[euphemism]. In
that regard, the 2010 election might not
have ended in a "shellacking", absent the need for Obama-whacking.
Shouldawouldacoulda
is just as lame and unproductive a game as the national Democrat
pastime, the blame game. Nonetheless, the people who
should be at the very top of the Democrats' blame list are the
Superdelegates [see Note].
Ironically it is
the same pre-shellacking, cram-it-down-your-throat tactics used
to pass Obamacare and other public support-lacking legislation
that partially enabled the less-qualified candidate to wrest the
nomination from the presumed standard bearer.
However, with
Obama's popularity at an all-time low and the Democrat ecology
so polluted as a result of his carelessness and ineptitude
[euphemisms], the would-be first
woman president will wisely wait to run against a Republican
opponent...
...for which she will certainly be blamed
by Democrats later
on.
Note: Superdelegates
made up approximately one-fifth of the total number of
delegates at the 2008 Democratic National Convention. The closeness of the race between the leading
contenders, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama, led to
speculation that the Superdelegates would play a decisive
role in selecting the nominee, a prospect that caused unease
among some Democratic Party leaders and Clinton supporters.
