Diplomad 2.0: Temporarily in California, I run into Obama voters galore, and occasionally ask them, especially the wealthy ones, why they voted for Obama.

The answers prove very mixed. They don’t really know why, except, well, he is black, and against the “war on women,” etc. They have no remedies for the imploding economy or the collapsing federal government. They only vaguely know of Benghazi, and most haven’t heard of “Fast and Furious.” They already complain about high taxes–and the election saw yet another state income tax raise passed by voters here–but don’t seem very aware of what’s bearing down on them in the next few months.

Key words: Don’t seem very aware. Well, they will be, they will be.
