Of course, there are Democrats who never bought into his bullsh-t from Day 1, not because we didn't like him, but that we simply asked him to demonstrate what he was promising and he failed to do so. From Day 1. Maureen Dowd wasn't one of those people. That was years ago. Since then, we tried a long, long time ago to put all of that behind us and rally behind the President. Currently it can only be stated that there are reasons to support Obama that have nothing to do with his unfortunate 2008 campaign, or the expectation set therein, which were dispelled a long, long time ago; the dispelling of which should not be news. [And yes with this post I guess it should be supposed that my flirtation with Romney is at an end.]
