Chicago loses. So does Obama’s image

For a couple of months, at least, a conventional wisdom has been developing in Washington’s power circles that insists that President Obama is weak and wishy-washy. On a host of issues, from his deliberative process on Afghanistan to his refusal to push hard for a public option, his critics have hammered him for failing to instill fear in his opponents. That meme comes not just from hard right critics such as Charles Krauthammer, who hits him today on Iran, but also from so-called neutral arbiters, such as Dana Milbank, who also hammers the president today.

Now that Chicago has lost its bid to host the Olympics, despite Obama’s unprecented personal lobbying effort, the meme — the theme of presidential weakness — will harden. Jimmy Carter was never able to shake free of that conventional wisdom. Will the same happen with Obama?

It's just about time for blacks to turn on him. I definitely have to make that "Whitey's" cereal box graphic.

I am going to Google Obama for the next 3 days to see what his ego reaction will be. The man is insane. Let's hope all he does is something inconsequential like kick a reporter and he doesn't start WW III.

Let's see what manner of protests break out after sunset tonight in Chicago. There's still time to "take it to the streets of justice!!".

It already is happening.
