"...You've got to win elections by looking at things that make you a winner, not a loser, in the eyes of the public. Just claiming you've got enemies is not enough..."
"Since when is Presidential leadership defined by making America poorer? They will not address deep spending cuts, they will not address runaway spending. Obama is bankrupting the future. This is his strategy for winning the future."
"Obama will push this nation downward for his own petty existence - which I'm not even sure what that is, anymore, to him, in his mind. The question I ask the Democrats is, are you going to follow this man over this partisan cliff?"
"Can you imagine Ronald Reagan, for example, calling on Congress to lead instead of leading, himself? Of course not. But from this guy Obama, this incompetent failure, yes, this is what we've come to expect."
"...When someone surrounds themselves with a 'yes chorus' who tell them only what they want to hear, that someone cares only about themselves, not about anything else. A true leader would be doing the right thing, and they would not worry at this moment about being reelected..."
"...Obama is 'leaderlike', we are being told by the left media and the left politicians... It's laughable to use the word leadership in the same sentence as Obama. The man is voting 'present'..."
"Mr. Obama, if you believe America should lead, why Libya? Why not the many more important things in the world and in this nation that need leadership?"
"...[Military men] understand that to lead, you lead by example, but Obama thumbs his nose at the people of this country. He expects and he often receives blind obedience..."
"One of the qualities of leadership is that a leader understands how important it is to have the confidence of the people. He explains his actions. He convinces you. And he has to EARN that confidence so that the people he is leading are not hesitant to be led. Obama does not do this. He seeks only obedience through intimidation, which is the opposite of leadership."
