After Obama’s reaction to last week’s debacle in Denver, David Axelrod must have asked himself if The Won hadn’t taken a few too many drags on the choom.
President Barack Obama did not take his debate preparation seriously, ignored the advice of senior aides and walked off the stage in Denver believing he had got the better of Mitt Romney, according to a Democrat close to the Obama campaign.Plus, he came armed with lousy ideas backed up by zero facts.
The Democrat said that Obama’s inner circle was dismayed at the ‘disaster’ that the first presidential debate had turned out to be and believed that the central problem was that the President was so disdainful of Romney that he didn’t believe he needed to engage with him.
‘President Obama made it clear he wanted to be doing anything else – anything – but debate prep,’ the Democrat said. ‘He kept breaking off whenever he got the opportunity and never really focused on the event.
‘He went into the debate armed with a number of one-liners to throw at Romney, including at least two about Romney not caring about 47 per cent of the country. But he decided not to use them.’
The Democrat, who is aligned with the Obama campaign and has been an unofficial adviser on occasions, said that David Axelrod, Obama’s chief strategist, was stunned that the President left the stage feeling that he had won the debate.
Wow.
Wow? How about "Hallucinogens".
Doug, he did do better, that is in the one that took place on the planet Dee-lou-sion-al.

This all goes along with the diagnosis of narcissism doesn't it? Huge ego. No real ability to gauge his own performance. He always does great in his own mind. Remember when he put himself in the top four Presidents? CHRONIC UNTREATABLE NARCISSISM. The only disease where everyone hopes it's fatal.
