Today the President continues his campaign tour to rally his exhausted (Velma’ Hart’s word) and ignorant (Kerry’s word) base … and get them to buck up (Biden’s words) and get out of their chairs (paraphrasing O’s words).
Interesting tactic.
Now, instead of insulting Bush & Boehner, top Dems are insulting voters.
Might work …

Have you noticed that crowds for Obama’s events are a lot thinner these days.
Here’s an example …
Six weeks before the mid-term elections, President Obama couldn’t fill the ballroom at the Roosevelt Hotel, despite cheap tickets on offer.
And then he was met by hecklers.
Event organizers had to reach down to the D list to fill a room to listen to him.
Most of the low rollers arrived early to see President Obama up close and personal.
Tickets for the general reception at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York were only $100.
Some bought tickets for $50 from their desperate Democratic committeeman.
Some bought the same day.

I guess some of the mojo is gone, huh ?
More important, is anybody listening to these 2-a-day speeches the President is giving ?
They’re kind of a blur, aren’t they ?
