On Obama's (& the media's) Lincoln delusions

On Obama's (& the media's) Lincoln delusions

Obama seems to be under a delusion ,(shared by many in the news media),
that by mimicking Lincoln's cross-country train trip,talking about a
team of rivals,invoking Lincoln several times in his speeches (like Bush
),& simply being from Illinois,will somehow,magically make him into a
21st cent Lincoln.It will not .Lincoln was not one of America's greatest
presidents because of any of those things, but because he did,you know
stuff ,stuff like ,OOOh,ABOLISHING SLAVERY.Obama has not done anything
even remotely like that.Indeed his opponent,(as far as he is from
Lincoln),is far closer in achievement & nobility than Mr.Obama has even
attempted to be.The comparison of Obama to Lincoln,or even Obama to
McCain does not work in Mr.Obama's favor.Indeed,it shames him.
