"A New York Timesfront page story today — New York Times! — might have killed President Obama’s re-election hopes.
The story is called 'The Competitor in Chief — Obama Plays To Win, In Politics and Everything Else.' It is devastating.
With such a title, and from such a friendly organ, at first I thought Jodi Kantor’s piece would be a collection of Obama’s greatest political wins: His rapid rise in Illinois, his win over Hillary Clinton in the 2008 Democratic primaries, the passage of health care, and so on.
But the NYT piece is not about any of that. Rather, it is a deep look into the two outstanding flaws in Obama’s executive leadership:
1. How he vastly overrates his capabilities:2. How he spends extraordinary amounts of time and energy to compete in — trivialities."
I don't think any single article like this kills Obama's hopes to be re-elected but it does demonstrate that even liberal enclaves occasionally leak the truth about his incompetence as a leader in all respects.
