He's Back!!

Former President Barack Obama is shunning political precedent, telling insiders and close allies he plans to hit the campaign trail this fall to help elect Democrat Ralph Northam as the next governor of Virginia.

A spokesman for the Virginian democrat told the Washington Post that Obama agreed to take his old stump speech out of retirement this fall, confirming the former President will be campaigning with Northam but refused to “go into any further detail about the private conservations that Lt. Governor Ralph Northam had with President Barack Obama.”

Obama’s office also confirmed the President plans to appear with democratic hopeful later this year; his first-time campaigning since leaving the White House.

The democrats are looking to the former President to turn the tide after a string of special election defeats, fundraising shortfalls, and low turnout have the party reeling.  Obama won Virginia in both 2008 and 2012, and local party officials believe he has what it takes to bring Northam over the top.

Northam will go on to face Republican nominee Ed Gillespie, a longtime party insider and former Republican National Committee Chairman, this November.

I get a kick out the author still referring to Obama as the president. He's not the president any more people...

Though I cannot understand it, one cannot argue that Barack Obama is personally popular and is considered a great speaker.  He has, and will probably continue to have, the ability to draw huge crowds and raise millions of dollars.

It is also undeniable that - in spite of his personal popularity - Obama has not been able to transmit his popularity into votes for others in his party.  Here's how the democrat party as a whole fared under Obama:

Quote

Under that approach, we would measure Obama by comparing the Democrats’ standing after the 2006 election—just before his first race—with its position after November’s contest. Using that standard, Democrats will end the Obama era with 39 fewer House seats (233 to 194), three fewer Senate seats (51 to 48), and 12 fewer governorships (28 to 16).

I couldn't find the exact stats to support it, but I'm pretty sure the majority of the candidates that Obama personally campaigned for over the years ended up losing.

Obama and the people around him must know what his record is in endorsements.  But at the same time, Obama is chomping at the bit to get back 'in the game' and to be relevant.  He must feel that he does not have enough attention.  People are not talking about him enough.

So he and his people have likely looked around, surveyed the political landscape, and feel that the Virginia gubernatorial race is a good bet for a 'coming out' party for the former president.

Virginia is, after all, a blue state - so any generic democrat has an edge over any generic republican.  And the establishment democrats prevailed in the primary election by preventing the Sanders backed candidate from getting the nomination.

So Obama will campaign for Northam, and Northam will likely win (as he would likely have won without Obama campaigning).  But this way, Obama will be able to say . . . "do you miss ME yet?"

Blessings,

-Ed

Can you imagine the level of angst the Left holds being a Republican is in the White house. And the Republicans are majority in both houses in Congress. 

Barrack was promoting Hillary as the most qualified to lead this nation, think about that when recalling her deplorable unlawful behavior all her career, since  Thomas Jefferson.  She was to be the third term of Obama and carry forward his plans for America. And then, that all stopped. 
Not just in the White house, but in the House and the Senate. 

 

Obama's on just as strong a mission as is Hillary and her resistance.

Obama fulfilling the role as an anomaly  in our political stage is not by coincidence..  Never before have we had a man do what he has been doing after sitting as president.

But while all this increases wickedness is going on;God is still directing the choir! :hurrah:

And then, that all stopped. 
Not just in the White house, but in the House and the Senate. "

Gods provision has given "us" "USA" a season to repent and come to Christ and for saints to  spread his gospel.  We needed President Trump to step in. As sitting president, he has loosened the talons of the enemy for us to continue to have freedoms to shine our lights brightly and spread the gospel to every creature throughout the land.

Satans wicked servants will continue to fight God and his plan but we do know that never ever will the enemy prevail against the church!  

Its all for Gods glory. Everything happening is part of the grand plan that is coming to an end,SOON.

We see them failing and falling like dominoes.  The 7 yr tribulation  is at the door.

Praise the LORD !

Romans 8:28

28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

 

Blessings
