NOT MAKING ANY GROUND
What's a guy to do to bring back all that 'hope & change' from the crowds of 2008. Stadiums
were huge with 'hope & change' and engergized by the junior senator fron Illinois. Most
everyone with the 'hope & change' put all their eggs in one basket and the campaign
beat the Arizona Senator handily in November 2008 for the presidency of the United
States.
But, soon there was not so much hope, due to the unwelcomed change. The price of goods
and services went up and continues to rise. The cost of energy hit unprecidented highs
and the cost of gas is still over $4/gallon in the west. The junior senator from ILLINOIS
(now POTUS) was unable to reenergize the crowds of 2008, but he did energize the opposition
after the first debate. The POTUS was seen who he really was and even after debate #2 and
debate #3 the crowds and support of 2008 seemed to withdraw from the excitement.
So what have the election polls been saying? ANS: They have not been kind to the POTUS and
his position has not improved in the two weeks before NOVEMBER 1, 2012. There has not
been any improvement in the polls for the POTUS, but there has been an ominous and steady
abandonment of his 2008 political excitement. Even worse is the steady improvement in the
polls of the former Governor from Massechusetts. His message is supported by the majority
of the electorate.
What is the POTUS to do after experiencing support fall-off, excitement fall-off and
financial fall-off? ANS: 1) Create a crisis or use an existing crisis to better one's political
standing or 2) Continue the slander against your opponent and deflect all criticism to the
political inadequacy of your opponent.
But, the campaign continues to not make any ground and the opponent continues to make inroads,
even into blue states that used to be certain. The original message of 'hope & change'
has been ignored due to the lack of 'hope & change' reality. But, there continues to be
erosion of support and excitement for the POTUS campaign and his handlers continue to
see the campaign NOT MAKING ANY GROUND!
