I've been saying this since the debate.....His ego won't let him quit, but even he can see if he continues with his commie policies it's going to be a meltdown and he will be blamed...he wants a communist agenda, but it isn't going to happen, he'll get a revolution first. He'd rather go out and be able to blame someone else for awhile and then when Mitts policies work, he'll claim some credit for it as in "I laid the groundwork", that's what the 0 does best...narcissists never take responsibility, they blame others....like Bush, which he has done so many times it has become a joke. He wants to be remembered as something other than the biggest dumbazz ever elected, but it ain't gonna happen, he owns that title and proved it last week.
