Why Obama is the victim in this debt ceiling debate

Who is being hurt most in the on going tit-for-tat that is the current debt ceiling debate? That seems to be the question of the hour and here is your definitive answer: Obama.

And here is why. He is the only main figure in the debate who is running for president in 2012. On November 2nd of next year, it will not be Obama v John Boehner or Eric Cantor or Paul Ryan.

Understand that Obama's disapproval numbers for his handling of the economy is 61% !!! That is huge. No potential GOP candidate has these kinds of numbers. The Left is deserting him in droves and the press was all over Jay Carney in his press briefing, yesterday.

"Why has Obama not put forth his plan ??" That was the question of the moment and it was asked over and over again. There was no answer coming from Carney. In fact, when Tim Geithner appeared on Chris Wallace's "Fox News Sunday," he refused to answer the question, "Do you have a plan for spending if a bill to raise the debt ceiling is not reached?" Wallace asked this question 5 or 6 times, all without an answer.

The Man has no plan . . . . that is for certain, and those on his side of the aisle are getting tired of his B.S. Understand that his last press conference to the nation from the East Room, contained nothing new . . . not one thing. Usually when a president calls for a conference in the "East Room," it means something big is getting ready to be announced. So the press corp came to the meeting and the networks dutifully gave Obama more free time for his national "announcement" and what did we get? We got NOTHING.

And that has been the "word of the day" for the past two and half years. We have gotten nothing from this man except debt and grief.
