Think of the American economy as a car, President Obama starts. Republicans were behind the wheel for eight years before they drove it into a ditch. So Democrats got the keys. Now they\u2019re in the ditch. And it\u2019s hot. It\u2019s muddy. There are bugs everywhere. But they got their boots on. And they\u2019re pushing, they\u2019re clawing, they\u2019re doing everything they can to get the car out of the ditch. They look up and see Republicans just standing there, saying: You\u2019re doing it wrong. So Obama asks them to come down and help, but they go: No, no, we\u2019re good, and keep \u201csipping on a Slurpee\u201d. While you’re reading this article, you might be interested in vehicles. You might also be interested in this great spare saver offer<\/a>, so check this out!<\/p>\n

So Democrats keep slipping and sliding and finally they shove it out of the ditch. The car\u2019s not pretty. It looks-. Well, it looks like a car that was stuck in a ditch for two years. It looked like it has a car stereo<\/a> but not used in a long period of time, it has cracks in it but can be replaceable. It desperately needs a tune-up, could use a carwash, \u201cbut it\u2019s moving.\u201d Obama wipes his brow, opens the door when he gets a tap on his shoulder. It\u2019s the Republicans. They want the keys back. No, Obama tells them, you can\u2019t have them. You\u2019re a terrible driver. You\u2019ll just put the car in reverse and drive it back into the ditch.<\/p>\n

Now Obama pauses at the podium. He smiles before his favorite part of the car analogy: \u201cThere\u2019s a reason why, when you want to go forward, you put it into \u2018D,\u2019 and when you go backward, it goes into \u2018R\u2019. It\u2019s not a coincidence.\u201d<\/p>\n

Obama and his 29 year old speechwriter\/\u201cmind reader\u201d wunderkind Jon Favreau have been driving the Car Speech across the Midwest all summer. They kind of have to. The 2010 Midterm Elections are five weeks away, and Democrats are in trouble.<\/p>\n

*******<\/strong><\/center><\/p>\n

Think of the America political psyche as a pendulum. At rest, it\u2019s tilted a tad right of center, but it swings left and right with the political times. It oscillates right during times of war and urges for Less Government. And it swings left in lieu of economic hardship, social issues, and Bush presidencies. The pendulum almost broke swerving left after the last one. So far so that the Incredibly Shrinking Republican Party was deemed white, nestled in the foothills of Appalachia, and an endangered species. It really only had two talking points: tax cuts and \u201cdrill baby drill!\u201d MSNBC cheered the possible demise of the entire Republican party. They were wrong.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But Obama was wrong, too. He misread his sweeping 2008 election as a mandate for federal activism. Except Americans didn\u2019t want a more involved government. They just didn\u2019t want George W. Bush. Or 95% of him in John McCain. And so the pendulum swung back to the center in the wake of lingering high unemployment, obstructionist Republicans, and delayed Change. Remember the iconic \u201cHope\u201d poster that was a clarion call for fresh thinking? It was donated to a museum by a pair of lobbyists and is now the work of satire.<\/p>\n

\"Obama<\/p>\n

And so President Obama and his 2008 Election Dream Team are scrambling to recreate the magic that brought out voters\u2014especially college students\u2014in record numbers. It was much easier then. Republicans were handicapped by Still President George W. Bush. Sarah Palin by a) geography and b) the English language.<\/p>\n

Now, for really the first time in Obama\u2019s meteoric rise, he must stop and defend his record. He ran for President on a light record. Yes, his vote against the Iraq War was gutsy, right, and distinguished him from Hillary. But he generally shied away from controversy, voting present 130 times in Illinois state senate.<\/p>\n

As President, Black Cinderella\u2019s achievements are all well-and-good\u2014keeping us safe, healthcare reform, improved global image, credit card consumer rights, tobacco regulation, Wall Street regulation, ending the Iraq War (our Korea)\u2014but they won\u2019t bring out voters.<\/p>\n

\"Obama<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the economy, Dr. Spock. Americans don\u2019t blame Obama for the Great Recession. They blame him for the painfully slow recovery from it. Unemployment is 9.6%. The Stimulus package jumpstarted the economy, but it\u2019s sputtering. Fortunately for Obama:<\/p>\n

The Tea Party Is The Best Thing To Happen To Democrats Since George W. Bush<\/strong><\/p>\n

Take Sharron Angle. She said rape victims should<\/a> make \u201cwhat was really a lemon situation into lemonade.\u201d() The Republican Senate candidate in Nevada has been endorsed by no other than Sarah Palin and Mitt Romney.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s Christine O’Donnell. O\u2019Donnell sent shockwaves across the Republican party when she upset a 9-term representative for the Delaware Senate nomination. She has also a) called Darwin\u2019s theory of evolution a \u201cmyth\u201d, b) blasted women at service academies because they \u201ccripple the readiness of our defense\u201d, and c) said gays have an \u201cidentity disorder\u201d. She has also dabbled in witchcraft: \u201cOne of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She will need an especially potent witch\u2019s brew in November, however. A September 21 Fox News poll reported O\u2019Donnell trailing by 15%. But, in O\u2019Donnell\u2019s defense, the sorcerer constituency\u2019s votes were not yet believed to be counted.<\/p>\n

Angle and O\u2019Donnell are two of the leading candidates of the amorphous Tea Party insurgency. The Tea Party burst into prominence earlier this year with Scott Brown\u2019s shirtless photos and populist rage. The problem is the Tea Party doesn\u2019t have a discernible unifying ideology except a) they\u2019re angry and b) the deficit is too big. This is ironic because the Tea Party candidates were strangely silent as President George W. Bush turned the nation\u2019s largest surplus into the nation\u2019s largest deficit. The problem is they have a fatal flaw: talking.<\/p>\n

Not surprisingly, Obama wants to hear some of their other ideas. In a Monday town hall meeting, Obama called out the Tea Party<\/a>, asking: \u201cSpecifically, what would you do? It’s not enough just to say get control of spending.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s sad, really. It\u2019s sad that as China pioneers green energy and quietly buys up vast swathes of Africa and the Middle East, Angle and O\u2019Donnell are our rising political stars. It\u2019s sad that in 2010 these fringe voices are finding cachet in the world\u2019s lone Superpower.<\/p>\n

Love him or hate him, Obama tried again and again to extend his hand to the other side of the aisle. But every time he did he was met with a clenched first. Not a single Republican voted for the Stimulus package. It\u2019s very difficult to have a meaningful national debate when one side has a bag of words and the other is handicapped by \u2026 reality. You can\u2019t reason with a crazy. And when that crazy is just less than half of Congress, the American Empire has cracks and fissures on a late-Ancient Rome scale.<\/p>\n

In the mean time, however, Obama and Democrats hope the Tea Partiers will just keep talking till Election Day.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s D\u00e9j\u00e0 vu All Over Again (But It Ain\u2019t 1994).<\/strong><\/p>\n

A young Democrat President sweeps into office after years of Bush wars and economic malaise. He bankrupts his political capital on healthcare reform campaign. He goes on to watch his party lose control of the House to a reenergized Republican party two years into office. Hint: The Republicans\u2019 newly-minted \u201cPledge To America\u201d was forged with Newt Gingrich\u2019s \u201cContract With America\u201d manifesto in mind.<\/p>\n

Political pundits love to draw the 1994-2010 comparison. There\u2019s just one problem. They\u2019re 12 years too late. And the White House knows it. \u201cThis one feels more like 1982 than 1994,\u201d White House communications director Daniel Pfeiffer mused. President Obama\u2019s perilous midterm standing doesn\u2019t smack of Bill Clinton\u2019s first midterm. It\u2019s more like Ronald Reagan\u2019s.<\/p>\n

\"Obama<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t tell the Tea Party, but President Obama\u2019s approval ratings in his first two years tanked in lockstep with those of Ronald Reagan. Like Reagan, President Obama is an outside-the-Beltway, eloquent President who inherited the office in a time of dire economic conditions and war. Like Reagan, President Obama is liked more for his personality than his actual policies.<\/p>\n

Spoiler Alert I: Reagan\u2019s popularity plummeted to a low of 42 percent in 1982. The President cautioned voters against a return to his predecessor\u2019s tax-and-spend economic policies. Republicans lost 26 seats in the House of Representatives, but they held onto the House. Spoiler Alert II: The economy recovered. President Reagan went on to slaughter the opposing ticket in his 1984 re-election bid and became one of the most popular presidents in recent memory.<\/p>\n

The End Of Rambo<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Rahm Emmanuel was just too fierce.<\/p>\n

He once mailed a gutted fish to a pollster simply because he made him angry. The night after Bill Clinton was reelected Emmanuel brandished a knife, stabbed the table, and shrieked \u201cDead! … Dead! … Dead!\u201d to the name of each of the President\u2019s foes. When Tony Blair was about to back Clinton during his impeachment trial, Rahm took the leader of Great Britain aside and shouted: \u201cDon\u2019t fuck this up!\u201d This February he called Democrats \u201cf——- retarded\u201d for wanting to run healthcare reform commercials.<\/p>\n

This all makes sense when you consider Rahmbo is the brother of the real life Ari Gold. What doesn\u2019t make sense is why the man dubbed the most powerful chief of staff, maybe ever, is stepping down. Rahmbo could have been the next Speaker of the House. He was arguably the second most powerful man in the world. Instead, he\u2019s changing his cell phone area code back to 312, packing his bags, and running for mayor of Chicago.<\/p>\n

It didn\u2019t have to be this way. Rahmbo and Obama used to be boys. Back in 2009, Rahmbo had the President\u2019s ear on everything. But sometime that summer Obama stopped listening. Rahmbo was just too polarizing. Obama, too idealistic.<\/p>\n

They say you can chart a Presidency in chapters by the chief of staff. Chapter 1 of the Obama Presidency, then, was a brusque, no-holds-barred, very productive 20 months. Chapter 2 will be much tamer. Rahmbo will be replaced by Pete Rouse. Rouse is\u2026 nice. He\u2019s a soft-spoken guy who keeps a low profile. But that\u2019s not what Obama needs. Emmanuel lectured the Professor-In-Chief in the class of hard-knocks politics every day. Rahm\u2019s 7:45 AM White House screaming sessions were the stuff of legend. You can even track Obama\u2019s 2009 healthcare reform second-half drift to when he stopped listening to Rahmbo.<\/p>\n

Rahmbo was teary-eyed when he wished White House staffers goodbye last Friday. He admitted he pushed the team \u201cvery hard\u201d, but it was the White House that had the last laugh with a thoughtful gift. \u201cThis is a dead fish!\u201d Rahmbo shouted when he unwrapped it. Sort of. \u201cTo most people, it looks like a dead fish,\u201d Budget Chief Austan Goolsbee teased. \u201cBut to a future mayor of Chicago, it looks like a dead Asian Carp. And you’ll be happy to know that it wasn’t easy to find one of these.\u201d<\/p>\n

Comedy Central Will Win Big<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Colbert<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re the front man on Comedy Central you have the unassailable advantage of not being not accountable but all-too relevant. Call Stewart out on his sometime preachiness or quick out-of-context TV clips and he\u2019ll point out his show runs after South Park and Chappelle Show reruns. It\u2019s working, too. He\u2019s hosted the Oscars. Twice.<\/p>\n

But it has been arguably a better run for his disciple. He roasted President George W. Bush to his face and lived to tell about it. He\u2019s a best-selling author and a former Presidential candidate. He has umpteen Emmys, a Ben & Jerry\u2019s ice cream flavor named after him, and a paralyzing fear of bears. He is Stephen Colbert (silent T). And he has spoofed the personality-driven punditry of FOX News to a T.<\/p>\n

Comedy Central\u2019s twin stars will host dueling rallies on October 30. Glenn Beck is worried it might dwarf his own Martin Luther King impression. Even Democrats are afraid it might overshadow their own rally. Funny because time was people said Jon Stewart and his protege were a George W. Bush Presidency phenomenon. They would inevitably peter out with Dubya. So much for that. Only Comedy Central\u2019s dynamic duo have made sense of sissy Democrats and obstructionist Republicans.<\/p>\n

Sarah Palin Update:<\/strong> The former half-term governor of Alaska and 2012 Republican President candidate front runner irked many in a Hong Kong speech when she blamed the Great Recession on too MUCH government regulation. More recently, she was booed on \u201cDancing With The Stars\u201d and dissed by Arnold Schwarzenegger on Twitter<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\"Arnold<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

Sign #435 You Were A Lousy President:<\/strong> In 2008, President George W. Bush wasn\u2019t wanted at his own party\u2019s national convention. In 2010, Bush has to push back his pending memoir till after midterms because Republican leadership didn\u2019t want the association.<\/p>\n

And finally, The Worst Political Speech Of All Time:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Winner: Phil Davison, a GOP candidate for the treasurer\u2019s office in Stark County, Ohio.<\/p>\n

<\/object><\/center><\/p>\n

Update: He didn\u2019t get the nomination.<\/p>\n
