So he's definitely not my Messiah, no matter how much you keep saying he is.
So it begs the question. If he had delivered as promised would he have been your Messiah? Would it be accurate to say Obama is a liar (he promised and never delivered)? If we agree, would it be fair to say, "Obama Lied, Democratic Party Died??
He has never been my Messiah. He's the candidate I voted for. I voted for George Bush the first time, and he wasn't my Messiah either. Obama hasn't delivered everything he promised, although he still has two more years. He promised to get our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan. I'm still waiting.
He did deliver health care for all Americans and I am pleased that he kept that promise and that kids now have health insurance, no matter what their condition.
The Democratic Party is less than 10 points behind the Republican Party in voter support so no, I don't think it would be fair to say the Democratic Party died.
