"Hanson’s Prediction Holding Up Well" By David Hogberg at IBD:
Over at National Review’s The Corner, Victor Davis Hanson wrote:
At home, Obama is becoming laughable and laying the groundwork for the greatest conservative populist reaction since the Reagan Revolution.
Keep in mind that Hanson wrote this last year, in February.
Now that there appears to be increasing regret among some in the media over how they lionized Obama, it is worth reading how Hanson began that blog post:
Some of us have been warning that it was not healthy for the U.S. media to have deified rather than questioned Obama, especially given that they tore apart Bush, ridiculed Palin, and caricatured Hillary. And now we can see the results of their two years of advocacy rather than scrutiny.
We are quite literally after two weeks teetering on an Obama implosion—and with no Dick Morris to bail him out—brought on by messianic delusions of grandeur, hubris, and a strange naivete that soaring rhetoric and a multiracial profile can add requisite cover to good old-fashioned Chicago politicking.
It’s worth reading all of Hanson’s post, as most of it has held up very well
