“It’s pretty clear to me based on this interview that the president is saying, ‘I’ve given up, You’re on your own,’” said Democratic strategist Doug Schoen.
He also admitted to this,
he also realized too late that “there is no such thing as shovel-ready projects,” a familiar refrain made by the president when he was trying to sell the stimulus package.
“There are almost 100 shovel-ready transportation projects already approved,” he said in August 2009. As recently as July of this year, he said, “Shovels will soon be moving earth and trucks will soon be pouring concrete.”
Meanwhile unemployment’s higher than it’s been in decades.

“It’s pretty clear to me based on this interview that the president is saying, ‘I’ve given up, You’re on your own,’” said Democratic strategist Doug Schoen.
Not quite. In the thrall of her successful crusade against childhood obesity, The World’s Most Powerful Woman, Michelle Obama’s hitting the campaign trail. That ought to seal the fate of the Dems.
