Obama Fatigue
One of the wonderful benefits of Operation Chaos will be «Obama Fatigue». People can only maintain a certain level of emotional energy for so long. Right now, with the help of Operation Chaos, and Hillary continuing in the race, the Obama and his supporters are running at full speed in their attempt to secure the nomination. I see it when I walk around Missoula and all the enlightened signaling their support for Obama with their buttons and stickers. I see it in the way the MSM fawns over him. I see it in the left wing blogs. I hear it in my conversations with people. BTW, he does have a very cool logo.
I'm guessing Hillary is going to take this thing all the way to the convention which will require even more emotional energy from the Obama supporters. When it's all said and done, they will be emotionally spent. Will they have enough energy to recharge themselves for the general election? I'm sure the rabid, hard core supporters might, but I doubt the younger, college age recruits who seem to be providing the majority of his support now will have the same energy in November.
Even Hillary's supporters will be victims. They might even be worse off after this hard fought race and really not care to take part in the general. Their emotional energy was/is directed towards Hillary and it will be very difficult to point it towards the candidate they have been fighting against for so long. Too bad for Obama that's a little over 50% of the voters.
Does Obama have the charisma to fire up his supporters after the primary and through the general? I'm not so sure people will want to go another round so soon. He might even end up being a victim of Obama Fatigue.

Perhaps Obama could bring in some of his inspirational preachers from his church, they seem to be able to fire up a crowd. I'd much prefer him bringing in his preachers rather than his terrorist buds, who seem to be able to fire things up in a different manner.
I think Democrats are already having a bad case of buyer's remorse.

Mark my words, this thing will be over next week; most likely by the end of the day Wednesday. Care to take the bet, Andy?

Forget being emotionally drained. The Dems will be broke.

This is some good comedy. I should visit this blog more often - they say a laugh a day is good for you.

There's nothing like being enlightened and entertained at the same time, especially when you're a smug pinhead, right Jim?

In this case, we'll have to settle for entertainment only.

Colby,
I really don't care if she steps down on Wed or carries this out through the convention. I think she will carry it out through the convention, however. If she hasn't quit already, why would she give it up now?

Curtis Sliwa gives Mark Levin the inside scoop on Barack Obama's buddy Father Pfleger. Mark Levin Fan
I love Mark's show, and every once in a while I'll pimp the fan blog. Great place for Conservatives.

No Barry Hussein fatigue here! I've been having a whole lot of fun with the white kids who keep calling me and asking me to vote for Barry. So far I've convinced three callers that Barry is just the front boy for Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakhan. It's like they know immediately what I'm talking about and they're not afraid to express their doubts.
On the callers that object to my little lecture, I just vent on them and ruin their day.

Please tell me we won't have to listen to Obama droning on and on for the next four years, my daughter is already beginning to mock him at the dinner table when asking for salt, pepper, potatoes, etc....
