Does It Matter?

I think we're making too much of it, this Special Election coming up next week in Massachusetts. The trick for the White House will be to play whatever happens down. Business as normal. Elections can be either won or lost. It doesn't matter. Business as normal. Proceed with health care, cap and trade, immigration as announced. Proceed with imploding the dollar; undermining Israel... Elections don't matter; pubic opinion doesn't matter. All that matters is that Barack Hussein Obama is now in the Oval Office and he can get it done. The media can be counted on to paper over any unpleasantness.

The battle was won when Obama was elected by a plurality of the vote. He's already done more than any president before him in this short a time. He still has three-quarters of his term to go: more than enough time to take care of all the rest. Mark my words, Obama is not about to lose any election that counts. Brown-Coakley counts (as far as the Senate is concerned, maybe), but it really doesn't. That's because after Obama is done, the Senate won't count; neither will the House; nor will public opinion. Face it folks, it'll take a shoe horn to get him out. Once this dawns on us, and we mobilize in earnest - happily abandoning our Marquess of Queensberry playbook - that's when we'll see fireworks - of the atomic kind.
