Epic Fail

A LOT OF EMOTIONAL CAPITAL WAS INVESTED IN O'BAMA. HIGH HOPES WERE PLACED IN HIM. WHEN HE DIDN'T LIVE UP TO HIS TOP BILLING AS PROMISED, THE STRATEGY IS TO HAVE HIM EXIT GRACEFULLY, STAGE RIGHT AND USHER IN A NEW ERA IN AMERICAN POLITICS.

SURE WE ASK OURSELVES, WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN, OR WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN. BUT THE OLD BOY DIDN'T HAVE IT IN HIM. WELL, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM A POT SMOKING BEACH BUM FROM HAWAII?

OH SURE, HE'LL GET HIS PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY WHERE HE CAN STUFF IT FULL OF HIS PERSONAL PAPERS. MEANINGLESS NONSENSE FROM 8 YEARS OF WASTED EFFORT WITH LITTLE TO SHOW. A GREAT PRESIDENT? NO. A GREAT CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER? NO WAY! JUST A FUNCTIONARY GOING THROUGH THE MOTIONS OF BEING AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT.

HIS BACKERS HAD REALLY HIGH HOPES FOR HIM. BUT I GUESS HE LET THEM DOWN. HE LET AMERICA DOWN. CAN HE REDEEM HIMSELF? IT'S DOUBTFUL. HE WILL CONTINUE ON DECEIVING AMERICA AND DECEIVING HIMSELF. IT'S TOO BAD TOO.

HE HAD POTENTIAL.
