Ten POTUS Mistakes

Most of the good columnists write for the New York Times, the Washington Post, or the Wall Street Journal, most but not all. Don Surber writes for the Daily Mail of Charleston, West Virginia and he often is as good as the best. I learn of his columns courtesy of Lucianne.com.

Recently in the spirit of Dave Letterman, Surber lists ten things President Obama has gotten wrong in his almost 3 years in office. Examples: the stimulus, Obamacare, the Tea Party, the economy, and Simpson-Bowles. Surber's explanation of why each of the ten was a goof is particularly fine.

His conclusion vis-a-vis Obama is on the money:
His one big advantage in 2012 is that the election is a referendum on him. Of course, that is also his one big disadvantage, isn’t it?
