Dowd Tries To Help

Maureen Dowd tries to make sense of it all:

The Obamas, especially Michelle, have radiated the sense that Americans do not appreciate what they sacrifice by living in a gilded cage.

It's not that she wants the Obamas replaced by the Gringriches or the Romneys. But she sees trouble on the electoral horizon, and is offering bracing advice: nobody likes whiners.

Well, with one exception. On Saturday Night Live in the 80s, Doug and Wendy Whiner were pretty popular:





If you're so bright,
just let it shine.
It doesn't play right
to win and then whine.
