This email from Obama has got to be the lamest

Face it – That President Obama did not help himself last nite debate has been proven  as none of the polls showed much of a lessening of Mittmentum.  In addition, a lot of folks in the Right Blogosphere are tittering about the fund raising letter that went out at midnight last night from His Moppiness:

I don’t want to lose this election.

Not because of what losing would mean for me — Michelle and I will be fine no matter what happens.

But because of what it would mean for our country and middle-class families.

This race is very close.

I’m not willing to watch the progress you and I worked so hard to achieve be undone.

No kidding sport – who spends almost a $1 Billion to just lose?  Just for one observation, try this one at Hot Air.  But I haven’t seen anyone talk about the earlier one – or perhaps I got to be in the Extra Special  catagory and only I got it?  Face it, if the above was The Mopiest, this HAS to be The Lamest.  Effort?  Any?

Translation: I’m not even gonna make an attempt – just gimme the money, dude”.  I gotta give him credit – right to the point.  Usually, though, there is SOME effort behind these to make you feel the urgency – at the minimum, there is an attempt to set a stage, tell a story, and then put out the tin cup.

This hit the wrong way – this is not an upbeat candidate.  This is the mark of  a “I’m beat.  I’m toast” candidate.  Or as Erik Erikson put it, Obama’s seeing the writing on the wall.  Or as DaTechGuy is wont to say “Ride right through them, they’re demoralized as hell!”  How much demoralized can this email say “yeah, that’s me”

This is in your hands now“.  Not only is he demoralized, he once again is pulls the “No Blame Obama” in that “it’s not my fault! If I am to win, you gotta do it for me – you are in charge of my destiny”; typical Progressive outsourcing their own responsibility to someone else.  How the LightWorker has fallen – from the Obamessiah that was going to heal the planet as he was the one he was waiting for to begging for a mere half sawbuck.

The facade has cracked – the Preference Cascade marches “forward” apace.
