Subject: [Ugnet] OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN ENDING POORLY
Ending poorly
By Jennifer Rubin
It has not escaped notice of mainstream media figures that President Obama is
ending this campaign in a shabby fashion. The Post’s Karen Tumulty tweeted on
Obama’s new tag line: “ ‘Not one of us’ has a specific, ugly history in US
politics. Bad place for the Obama campaign to go.” Indeed. ABC’s Terry Moran
observed, “Obama campaign’s tone right now — snarky, belittling — seems off for
the closing days.”
The low-rent rhetoric coincides with Mitt Romney’s surge in critical,
swing-state polling. Along with Obama’s travails on the Benghazi debacle, we
have a picture of an unpresidential president with little positive to say for
himself.
You know things are bad when MSNBC agrees that Obama lacks “a command of the
moment”:
The president’s campaign has boiled down to a series of insults and a flagging
effort to tamp down on the Benghazi fiasco. Mainstream outlets such as
McClatchy have figured out that despite accurate information that had come in
within 24 hours the administration continued to hype the angle that the
anti-Muslim video had ignited the attack. (On Sept. 20 “[Jay] Carney, the White
House spokesman who’d only days earlier tied the incident to the video, told
reporters it was ‘self-evident that what happened in Benghazi was a terrorist
attack.’ ”) Bret Baier of Fox News put together compelling account of the Obama
efforts to tie and then untie the murders to the anti-Muslim film.
Meanwhile, Stephen Hayes debunked apparent Obama administration spin that the
attacks had no connection to al-Qaeda. (In fact the CIA talking points put out
on Sept. 15 do connect the attacks to extremists, and the CIA, we know from Eli
Lake’s reporting, found that those responsible were talking with al-Qaeda of
the Islamic Maghreb within 24 hours of the attacks. Contrary to a New York
Times report (evidencing the heavy hand of White House spinners) the group
responsible for the attack Ansar al Sharia, Hayes points out, was labeled by
the Pentagon as a group that “has increasingly embodied al Qaeda’s presence in
Libya, as indicated by its active propaganda, extremist discourse, and hatred
of the West, especially the United States.”
The best description of the Obama campaign is “shrinking.” His map is shrinking
as Romney secures North Carolina and gains in Virginia and Florida. The
president’s stature is shrinking. And time to turn this around is shrinking as
well. Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to put all his eggs in the basket
labeled “Discredit Romney.” Right now, he’s the one lacking plausibility as a
competent presidential contender.
