Don’t get us wrong. We think Jack Cafferty has a couple major screws loose. But this is interesting because the CNN-er has turned increasingly hostile to President Obama in the last few months.
NewsBusters.org reports Cafferty’s look into the crystal ball:
Cafferty: President Obama is taking a lot for granted. Politico is reporting that top White House advisers are quietly working on plans for the 2012 reelection campaign. For now, the planning is made up of private closed door meetings among aides at all levels.
I guess when you have the economy and health care reform and the deficits under control, then you can spend your time worrying about the next election — even if it’s almost three years away.
The article’s sources say the president has given every sign he plans to run again, wants the next campaign to look a lot like the last one.
Well, my guess is it won’t turn out quite the same way.
It’s believed the re-election campaign would be managed by the White House deputy chief of staff, Jim Messina, and possibly be run out of Chicago, which is a good way to remove it from beltway politics and locate it, instead, in that bastion of good government.
The planning still in its early stages, but some say it would likely launch in about a year. Nonetheless, there’s still a long way to go. President Obama’s approval rating hovering at around 50 percent. And a majority of Americans say he doesn’t deserve to be re- elected. The American people were promised change and a lot of them think this administration is just more of the same.
And if the jobs don’t start coming back soon, well, he may want to see if that community organizer job is still open.
From ashes to ashes, from dust to dust, from community organizer to community organizer.
The circle of life. And death panels.
