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

#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!

#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.

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

Powell is spot on here. Notice, he doesnt take the typical frame the message tact. And if Obama didnt have so much contempt for all things military he would understand that the best optics are achievements.

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

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

#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.
