If Democrats Lose - Will It Be Obama's Fault?

If Dems lose, Obama will blame everyone but himself
Washington Examiner - Assume the polls are correct and Republicans win control of the House, and perhaps even the Senate, in next month's elections. What lessons will the White House learn? Will Barack Obama interpret the vote as a repudiation of much of his agenda, or will he conclude that he made a few tactical errors but was still right on the big issues?

Bet on the latter. All indications coming out of the White House suggest that if Democrats suffer major losses, the president and his top aides will resolutely refuse to reconsider the policies -- national health care, stimulus, runaway spending -- that led to their defeat. Instead, they will point fingers in virtually every direction other than their own. Come November, it's likely the D-for-Democrat that the president refers to so often will actually stand for "denial."

The White House has given us plenty of clues in recent days as to how Obama will react to a possible Democratic drubbing at the polls. Here are five:

1. Obama will blame voters, not himself.

2. Obama will spin the outcome as an illegitimate GOP victory.

3. Obama will blame a broken process.

4. Obama will reaffirm, not reconsider, his achievements.

5. Obama will resist real change inside the White House.

Tie all those threads together, and in the wake of a Republican victory in November you can virtually guarantee the White House will not concede that the president hurt himself by pushing an unpopular national health care program through Congress; by pushing nearly a trillion dollars in stimulus spending that failed to reduce unemployment as predicted; by pushing a costly cap-and-trade agenda; or by advocating any number of other initiatives that flew in the face of voter sentiments. - Read more > > >

Blog author's comments - Barack Hussein Obama will never fault himself for anything. Whatever goes wrong will always be the responsibility of someone else.

Of course his faithful followers are of the same mindset. This is the way the liberal mind functions; they are convinced they are always correct.

There are still many lefties who are quite sure that the debt and unemployment numbers we now have, are because of blunders by George W. Bush. They will not admit that Obama had anything to do with the creation of the current problems we now face.
