During the 2008 presidential campaign, MSNBC’s Chris Matthews made headlines with his creepy comment “Obama sends a thrill up my leg”.
I have to tell you, you know, it’s part of reporting this case, this election, the feeling most people get when they hear Barack Obama’s speech.
My, I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often.
Well, it seems that the thrill is gone from Matthews leg.
Now, he’s criticizing Obama for being out-of-touch, ineffective, and shirking leadership.
Oh my. How things have changed in 3 years.
As a friend of mine observed:
I’ve talked to plenty of people who voted for Obama in 2008 who say they will not vote for him again.
I haven’t run into a single person who did not vote for Obama who say that they will vote for him in 2012
That says a lot, doesn’t it.
