43. I hope you are right ..

Oct 2012

I keep think of HOW HARD Obama has worked, and everyone around him, only to see it dissolve in 90 minutes that don't matter a whit in the big picture real world.

Shee-it. We know he'd sure like to have that back. I feel for the guy. I know a lot are pissed at him, but, bejeezus, I can only feel for the guy. He's exhausted. He knows he blew it - this is all on him. Who knows what happened. Let's just hope you are right that this "gusher" for Rmoney is about to deflate. Hopefully it was well-timed, as you posit!

Thanks for your post.
