Why Is Obama Having Trouble Fundraising?

Jay Costs asks: “Why is Obama’s fundraising so weak?”

And he’s got a whole article on it, but I’m only partially literate — plus reading makes me tired. But here are my guess on the answer:

* He’s been president the past four years.

* The conditions we have now are not something people want to voluntarily pay money to get more of. Quite the opposite in fact.

* Most of the people dumb enough to still support Obama are now jobless and have no money to donate.

* The main people who would think Obama is doing a competent job — terrorists who wish to destroy America — have also been having trouble raising funds lately.

* No, really, he’s been president the past four years.

Come on; what sick twisted individual looks at what Obama’s been doing and just hands over their money for more of it? The Joker is the first one that springs to mind. I hope we can make Obama disclose donors, because they need to be on an FBI watch list. And maybe have their assets frozen before that money hurts someone.

  1. * The money’s being raised – it’s just that Michelle Obama is eating it.

    That’s all I’ve got.

    (What I don’t get is the big difference in poll results between Obama and Romany. Who’s smokin’ what?)

    The ones that can legitimately view it as an investment. George Kaiser invested less than $100,000* in Obama in 2008 and got a 528 million dollar federal loan gaurentee for Solyndra from it structured in such a way that his 50 millionish dollars invested had precedent over the US treasury in the bankruptcy proceeding. A 50,000% return on investment is pretty darn impressive.

    * Since Kaiser was a bundler the 100K might not even include a single penny of his own money, making the potential %ROI infinite.

    I’m assuming that you want actual names, so here’s the start of a list:

    George Soros, Rosie O’Donnell, Lawrence O’Donnell (those O’Donnells like to stick together), Barbra Streisand, Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg,
    puffy-faced shrew Joy Behar (to use her full name), Keith Olbermann . . . you take it from there.
