A dash of reality about the “finished” Obama

As most readers have probably noticed, the conservative media are overflowing lately with articles conclusorily stating that Obama is finished, he’s a spent force, he’s shot his bolt, he has no more moves left, he’s wan, he’s wilted, he’s defeated, his presidency is over, etc. I make no predictions, but I would remind the conservative triumphalists of the simple reality that nothing in politics remains the same. Things keep changing. It’s entirely possible that a year from now the economy and other problems will have improved along with Obama’s poll ratings, and the “Obama is Dead” industry of summer 2011 will have been forgotten.
