This past weekend on Meet the Press, liberal reporter Chuck Todd brought some depressing news to his colleagues at MSNBC – stat after stat, election result after election result, that shows President Obama is a toxic name when it comes to the ballot.
The segment left one Politico reporter to declare that the Obama machine is “a lie.”
Via the Washington Free Beacon (H/T Legal Insurrection):
Meet The Press host Chuck Todd and his Sunday panelists outlined the Democratic Party’s heavy losses under the Obama administration, with panelist Marc Caputo saying the idea of the “Obama political machine” was a “lie” that couldn’t win without him on a ballot.
Under Obama, Democrats have lost 13 Senate seats and 69 House seats in Congress, and the results are even more staggering on a local level. Democrats have lost 12 governorships, including Kentucky last week with the election of Matt Bevin, 30 state legislative chambers and more than 900 state legislative seats. That’s the worst showing for an incumbent president’s party since the Richard Nixon years, due to the taint of Watergate…
Politico reporter Marc Caputo said the idea of the Barack Obama political machine was nonsense.
“The Barack Obama political machine and oh, we’re big data? It’s a lie,” Caputo said. “The Obama political machine without Obama is no machine. They don’t win. That was a largely personality-based campaign in two different cycles.”
Also, Caputo said, Obama simply is not very popular.
Watch the video that will leave liberals very, very depressed …
We here at The Political Insider successfully predicted before the 2012 election that President Obama’s policies would kill any chance of Democrats winning that election.
Republicans would do well to remind future voters that a vote for Hillary would be a vote to extend Obama’s policies another four years.
It’s the anti-Obama machine that could be roaring to victory in 2016.
