That's right,
after the election instead of just being honest upfront, Barack Hussein Obama will attempt to
lower the expectations of his millions of minions, who through plain stupidity have come to believe his empty rhetoric. "
Hope" and "
change" will become "
dream on" and "
you believed all that crap?"
Barack Obama's senior advisers have drawn up plans to lower expectations for his presidency if he wins next week's election, amid concerns that many of his euphoric supporters are harboring unrealistic hopes of what he can achieve.
The sudden financial crisis and the prospect of a deep and painful recession have increased the urgency inside the Obama team to bring people down to earth, after a campaign in which his soaring rhetoric and promises of "hope" and "change" are now confronted with the reality of a stricken economy.
Some Obamessiah followers will still praise "The One." After all, he is the first black man to become President. It doesn't matter if he's inexperienced or incompetent or even if, through his arrogance, he sends America spiraling into a pit of whimpering appeasement and economic devastation. They showed da man!
Other Obamessiah followers will realize - too late - as historical as it would be to have a minority President leading the (once) greatest country on earth, it was a Pyrrhic victory, as best.
Most, I think, will learn an incredible lesson about politics and how it affects our everyday lives, no matter how far away Washington, D.C. seems to be.
Be careful what you wish for. You might just get it.
