    ...it was also Obama's latest failure. Because he not only endorsed Clinton, he actively campaigned for her, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayer money to fly around the country and stump for her.

    On the plus side, it kept him too busy to be back in DC, running the country further into the ground. :)

    True.

    But if he'd stayed home it's not like he'd be doing anything but twiddling his thumbs. His days of running the country 'into the ground' (although that sounds so mean, your heart must be dark and empty) ended in January 2016 when he switched over, pretty much full-time, to 'how can I preserve a legacy,' and 'how to get some money after this gig?' I don't begrudge him either one, I hope he makes a pile to add to the nobel money, but I think he'll fare about as well as he did running America on the legacy thing.

    Anyway, if he stayed home then Hillary might have lost by a bit more, but the country would've had hundred(s) of millions less in debt. Good point. Blackheart.
