Obama Has No Friends

Obama has no friends in Washington, other than perhaps a few of his imported Chicago cronies. He has no close relationships with any elected officials. He is a loner, a man out for himself.
In my book Flimflam Man it was predicted that the Democrats who tolerated him would turn against him once they realized the damage he had inflicted on their cohorts and the Democrat Party. In the wake of the obvious recent election debacle, it appears as though Democrats have turned, if not yet openly at least off the record. Alex Griswold reports that elected Democrats are no longer keeping their dislike for the President to themselves and feel just as negatively about Obama as Republicans:
Legendary Washington Post reporter and editor Bob Woodward said on a ‘Face the Nation’ panel that when he speaks to Senate Democrats about Obama they are ‘on fire,’ and just as loud in the criticism of the president as Republicans are publicly.
