Four Million Dollar, Gasoline Per Gallon Price in California Hurting Obama"s Reelection Attempt
The Chief Teleprompter or Teleprompter in Chief depending on how you see things politically is in a world of hurt during his reelection bid.
You see, President Obama came out to California and barely raised $4 million dollars in campaign contributions.
This is problematic because his trip to the great state probably cost the US Taxpayers $25 million in round numbers (and a massive traffic jam in LA).
One can only wonder how many taxpayers are fried at just paying their taxes on tax day.

Obama paid only $467,000 in taxes for 2010 so, his input in dollars are not even a drop in the bucket of the $25 million spent to jet-set out to California on Air Force One, the world's largest corporate jet.
How is it that a sitting US President can make such a poor showing in California and raise so few dollars with so many political events on his schedule? Well, I believe it's because Californians are busy paying over $4 per gallon for their gasoline, and unemployment is still hovering at 12% in the great state, that is if you believe the government's figures.
President Obama went to Hollywood, Silicon Valley, and hob-knobbed with the rich and famous in California, but only collecting $4 million in campaign contributions is a really bad omen for Obama.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the country the New York Times and Wall Street Journal were busy reporting how bad consumer, voter, and small business confidence is right now, and that Obama's "disapproval" rating was nearly 50%.
Barack Obama said a lot of things during those political events in California, but it appears no one is listening to his political rhetoric any longer? If you stop to consider why, well, it's obvious really, Obama has not made good on any of his promises to his leftist constituency, and his so-called economic plans have done just the opposite of what he'd promised everyone else.
Are people just fed-up with Obama's BS? Perhaps, and yes, that would be my guess.
My only question is what on Earth took everyone so long to wake-up, and why did they vote for him in the first place? Sometimes I just shake my head, I always assumed Americans were smarter than that, apparently not, but now I see perhaps there is some hope, because we need change - meaning we need to change the Teleprompter in Chief to a real Commander in Chief, someone who believes in free-markets, and doesn't run around the world apologizing for this great nation, and we need a President who doesn't play the blame game every chance he gets, or have an army of race-baiters trying to stir up trouble.
I ask you; is President Obama a total failure, dismal failure, absolute failure, or just a regular failure? Shoot me an email and send me your vote.
