#10  The power he has had is that he was an effective con artist. How do people lose to a con artist?.
I believe you can see how its done in his actions and speech. You don't want to believe it but there it is.

#7  He's still black and an anti-american socialist, General Powell. How else did you connect to him before?

#6  This from a man who has long since lost his own connection to reality.

#5  The presidentÂ… has to, I think, shift the way he has been doing things.

Powell is spot on here. Notice, he doesn’t take the typical “frame the message” tact. And if Obama didn’t have so much contempt for all things military he would understand that the best optics are achievements.

#3  It seems that both Powell and Obama are losing their ability to connect. This has got to be the most incompetent administration of all time.

#2  Exactly right, BP. Without the media et al. behind him, he wouldn't have been elected to the Senate either. Too bad he can't be promoted for incompetence. Wait, how about Sec. Gen. of the UN? Perfect!

#1  Wrong. Media narrative no longer able to cover up Obama's inability to connect with ordinary Americans.
