The Patriot Post® · Obama Ties His Boat Anchor to Democrats

CBS News Chief White House Correspondent Major Garrett highlights a serious problem for Democrats: “President Obama is not on the ballot this December, but to the dismay of some Democrats he’s talking like he is.” Of incumbent Democrats in tight races, Obama said, “These are all folks who vote with me – they have supported my agenda in Congress.” That was days after he declared, “Make no mistake: ‘[My] policies are on the ballot.” Then again, CBS’s Scott Pelley noted that Obama has been conspicuously “absent from the campaign trail” because Democrats “want him for the fundraisers but not on the stump.” Obama is toxic for Democrats right now, but, as The Weekly Standard’s Steve Hayes observed, “He’s such a narcissist that even when it would be advantageous for him to not have it be all about him, he has to make it all about him because that’s the way that he is.” Indeed, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told Democrats that if they don’t like Obama’s comments there’s more where that came from: “The success of many of these Democratic candidates will depend on their own success in motivating voters that strongly supported the president in 2012.” Here’s a boat anchor necklace – hope you like it.
