Obama-mania has gone full circle! We've gone from "he walks on water" to "the job is too much for one man" syndrome.
We heard this circa 1979 when Pres Carter was struggling with a bad economy and the Iran crisis.
It stopped in the early 1980s when Pres Reagan demonstrated that you can govern if you:
1) have popular support; and,
2) invite Dems to support your policies, such as he did with the tax cuts enacted in 1981, and a tough approach to terrorism.
Why are some making the "too much for one man" case again?
I think that Pres BO's supporters are looking for a reason, an explanation for his problems.
Could it be communication? Could it be that the issues are too much for one presidency to fix?
Pres BO does not have a communication problem. He has a substance problem.
We warned you that the presidency was no place to "promote" a guy who told you what you wanted to hear.
Unfortunately, things will get worse for Pres BO, specially in 2011 when Afghanistan blows up Dem unity and the public sector unions come calling for a bailout.
We discussed this, and other things, in our Wednesday show. Click here for the show!
