The President Manages to Fall Off the Floor
A last note. Ask yourself why the huge audience for such an allegedly dull race with the incumbent holding a comfortable lead? The answer is the real fear abroad in the country of the return of recession and a spiraling series of setbacks abroad, of leaderlessness combined with fecklessness on the days the president shows up at all –Vegas on the day of the Benghazi massacre. Millions tuned in because millions are scared. Romney was reassuring, onboth substance and style. Now the president is calling him a liar. That’s not what the country saw, because Romney was telling the truth. The country saw a grown-up who is now dealing with yet another series of childish tantrums.
The president is managing to fall off the floor.
Indeed.
We desperately need an adult back in the Oval Office.
