No Peggy. That's not why he was elected. Everyone, even his strongest supporters, knew his resume, and competence in anything wasn't on it. Even you were swooning during the campaign because he wasn't George Bush.
Noonan names three political disasters and then ponders whether he can possibly survive. His sycophant supporters and his props in the media won't bat an eyelash.
"There was the tearing and unnecessary war over his health-care proposal and its cost.
There was his day-to-day indifference to the views and hopes of the majority of voters regarding illegal immigration.
And now the past almost 40 days of dodging and dithering in the face of an environmental calamity. I don't see how you politically survive this."
You just watch, Peggy. It will all be George Bush's fault. Obama wanted a failed, weakened United States, and by gum, he's going to get one!

Peggy missed the big one. He did diddly squat about the economy--just tackled problems that weren't as big.
