With Jobs Bill Stalled, Obama Camp Takes Aim at Potential 2012 Rivals

This strikes me odd in two ways. First remember back to the 2008 election when Obama claimed he was "the only candidate who can work with both sides of the aisle"? It strikes me as total truth until the 2010 midterm elections when the opposition took over the House. Up to that time the other side was completely ignored.

Secondly, if you have been following the Amanda Knox trial in Italy, with all the "hard evidence" discredited leaving only "hear say" and inference, the prosecution has resorted to name-calling and character assassination to convict Ms Knox a second time. Judged on the facts the prosecution's case is very thin, indeed. So what is Obama doing in his bid for re-election? Name-calling and character assassination. How very odd. It would appear the Obama administration now believes their case for creating jobs or salvaging the economy is just as thin as the Prosecutor in Italy's Knox trial.

What I see is this:
1. The hard line Liberal Democrats who have been brainwashed into believing big government will solve anything will vote for him in 2012. Although this group is shrinking and murmuring about running an alternate candidate against Obama.
2. The blacks will vote for him, not in the issues, but because he's black. But the blacks are disassitfied with Obama too. Since November, 2008, the black community has been essentially ignored until just a few weeks ago when Obama figured out he needed to shore up the black vote.
3. Obama has lost many of the Independents according to the latest polls. I don't see Obama being able to do much to bring them back without creating a few million jobs and re-energizing the economy. Neither of those are likely to happen.

This is what happens when a dictator encounters an opposition who disagrees with him.
