Quote of the Day

"As bad news piles up for the Democrats, I asked a top Democratic strategist if it were possible that President Obama might 'pull a Lyndon Johnson' and soberly face the cameras, telling America that he has decided that the demands of partisan politics are interfering with his efforts to right our economy and that he has decided to withdraw to devote full time to our recovery. His answer: 'Yes. It’s possible. If things continue as they are and have not turned around by January, it is certainly possible.'"

Dick Morris, reporting in September of 2011 that President Obama won't run for a second term.

The Democratic strategists Morris talks to have one thing in common with Thomas Friedman's cab drivers. Neither exists.
