Did Obama buy four more years? No!

Are there no undecided voters left?

The Obama speech was aimed narrowly at energizing the far Left special interests that make up the Democrat Party, not at middle America. It might have been received well by the delegates on the floor who earlier in the week rejected God, but the speech flopped because it was a rehash of one of Obama’s State of the Unions.

Clearly, it was a calculated decision by Chicago to rally his base as opposed to reaching out to the middle to grow the vote. Compare last night’s speech to the ones he gave in 2004 and 2008 and it is no wonder why the Obama team moved the speech into a much smaller venue. President Obama has lost his magic because the American people are tired of his failed policies.

The entire convention was dedicated to answering one simple question: Are you better-off today than you were four years ago?

Plainly, the answer is no.
