All those who have risen to prominence over the past eight years, slinging it back at the criminals in D.C. are going to have to work a lot harder now, no matter how far short of our mark President Obama sinks. You know it won't be even a tenth as easy to mock him, or fulminate against his perfidies on camera or in print or on blogs. I have faith that Jon Stewart will continue to do a fine job informing the dirt ignorant about what's really going on, and Stephen Colbert will have a field day, but all the pundits whose faces we never should have been expected to bear and most of the stultifying groupthink liberal blogs will just have to get new jobs, or new things to blather about. Maybe the world of hurt from this depression....
