Things have not gone great for Obama this month, although the press is doing their best to push the narrative that his speech has healed all wounds,

In his appearance on The View today he again addressed the Wright affair, falsely claiming Wright apologized, so maybe Barry does know how badly the thing has cut into his credibility, even though his enablers in the media are doing their best to airbrush Wright’s comments and leftwingnut blogs are claiming the scandal is behind him.

Michael Barone shows otherwise, and reminds us that we elect presidents by state, not nationally (just ask President Gore) and shows how Obama’s national numbers have suffered:

I personally had no idea of the rancor and hatred and depths of resentment held by the black populace of America, not just the radicals and fringe, but in the middle class, “Buppie” (Black Urban Professional), the church-going and “moderate” majority of blacks in the United States. The Wright affair, and the black reaction to it, has opened a lot of eyes.

The vast majority of the LameStreamMedia are still in the bag for Obama, but in pendulum fashion, the press likes to swing back and forth as a monolithic force. This is a natural thing: they build up, there is a big story to a Cinderella coming out of nowhere and being the front runner. Then, the only logical story is to knock him back down. Still, they have to have ammunition, and Obama is giving them plenty.

First there was the 100 years remark that Obama milked at partisan speeches to great acclaim from the dirty hippies, union thugs, welfare queens and Kool-Aid drinkers who frequent Democrat rallies. Who the fuck actually goes to political rallies? You have to be a hard core, no life having, jobless fuck to go stand around for hours waiting for the rockstar to show up and give a canned stump speech.

Rush Limbaugh is so full of shit you are barely worth paying attention to. Today he called McCain the lesser of 3 leftists. McCain’s ADA rating is about 20%. Clinton’s is 96% and Obama’s is 99%. Obama is rated the most liberal Senator in Congress.

Both Dems have stated they will immediately begin removing troops from Iraq if they are elected. McCain states forcefully he sees a long-time US presence in Iraq ala Germany, Japan, Korea etc. McCain has stated he will name judges in the mold of Alito and Roberts. Obama and Clinton will name Ginsbergs and Stevens’ – there is speculation one of them could name JOHN FUCKING EDWARDS in some kind of tradeoff, after he plays around at Attorney Gen. for a couple years.

….for his pastor’s remarks while giving Romney a pass for hate taught by a cult of which Romney is a 3rd generation elder

The sheer, bald hypocrisy and audacity of the former Romney backers who never addressed the racism, intolerance and sexism inherent in the cult of which Romney is a 3rd generation leader, and who now attack Obama over cherry-picked statements by his paster, Jeremiah Wright.

Atrios is a cocksucking dick with ears that can type. He thinks snark is wit, asininity is edginess, and invalid and retarded logic is making a clever point.

He regularly posts individual news items (like an act of violence in Iraq) as if he were building some sort of case. (“See! Iraqis haven’t mastered Utopia yet! And its already been 5 years!”)

Or anytime any religious person is in the news for a negative reason, crime, infidelity, etc. (“See! All religious people are hypocrites and immoral monsters”)

and not a good one like the ones on this page.

Why anyone puts any stock in anything this stupid motherfucker says is beyond me. He got in on the bottom floor of the internet flood of intense far left discontent, gave them a place to vent, shrewdly took on all the co-bloggers he could so as to maximize effect, and is crowned as a genius and a true pundit on what is going on in politics today and the inside scoop due to his contacts with important insiders.

He’s good at organizing a blog, I’ll give him that, and enrich himself skimming off the top of a tsunami of political contributions by paying himself and his buddies a hefty slice for administering that cashflow, but a political guru he’s not.

A McCain blowout would not only be a refutation and defeat for the far left and their media allies, it would be a refutation and slap in the face for right wing nutbags who are leading a thinly veiled campaign to hurt and discredit McCain, because his candidacy flies in the face of the “appease the base” common wisdom that is in their interest, because its the only way they can get their far right agenda, very unpopular among common voters, forced upon the national stage.
