Panic is Setting In for the Left

With 13 days to go until election day, it seems pretty clear that the left and president Obama are starting to panic about their election prospects. Obama is in the midst of a five states in one day trip. All this effort just to get the increased local media coverage that comes with a campaign visit is incredible for a sitting president who is spending something like one billion dollars to publicize his candidacy. All it will do is tire Obama out in a major way and make it more likely that he will make some sort of mistake in the next week or so that will come back to haunt him on election day.

The Obama media is also in full melt down. My favorite example of this is an article running on Yahoo news under the headline: "Could Romney Overturn Roe v. Wade?" Really? That's where they are going? Roe v. Wade was handed down by the Supreme Court 40 years ago. Since then, states have been barred from interfering with or preventing abortions during the first trimester of pregnancy and only a few regulations are allowed during the second trimester. The likelihood of the Supreme Court overturning that decision is minuscule; the president cannot do anything to control that. Nevertheless, in an effort to get out all the pro choice voters, Yahoo news is running a story that any knowledgeable person would understand to be completely false. Why must the progressives rely so heavily on lies?

I realize that I should take all these signs of despair as a good thing. Nevertheless, the lying still makes me angry. America deserves better.
