In other words, elections don’t really matter all that much, because His Radiant Majesty King Barack I knows what’s really in the hearts of the people, and will rule according to his telepathic divination of what people who don’t vote really want… or, more to the point, according to what the King knows is good for them. I must confess that when I was putting together a field guide to Democrat spin on their midterm catastrophe yesterday, I didn’t think of including “elections don’t matter unless Democrats win.” That’s my bad, because I really should have seen it coming. Obama’s anti-democracy thoughts are really just an extension of a decades-old leftist meme that when Republicans win elections, the margin of victory is never enough to give them a “mandate.” Of course, they never advance that idea when Democrats win – victory by a single vote is mandate for unlimited power under those circumstances, even if the one vote was mysteriously discovered in the trunk of a Democrat precinct supervisor’s car the day after the election. Don’t try telling a liberal that Bill Clinton didn’t have a “mandate to govern” because he won with 41 percent of the vote in a freak three-way presidential contest.
