The President is running out of demons

Obama's approach to problems will undo him

by Keith Deerkoski, The Tennessean, September 21, 2009

President Barack Obama and members of the Democratic Party are pushing their agenda ahead with force and certainty. Health care. Cap and trade. Stimulus. Card check. Executive pay limits. Controlling both houses of Congress and the executive branch and armed with a celebrated politician and orator, there should be no challenge to immediate and monumental change for this party.

Take health care. The Democrats should have already passed a bill. They don't need one Republican vote. So what happened? August happened. An "angry mob" was awakened, and a public uprising began. Why?

Comment: Excellent article. Deerkoski argues that the President has demonized his opponents and now has demonized so many people he is running out of demons.
