Obama Stuck in 2008

Nostalgia for more popular times, perhaps?  The president, it appears, just can’t get the warm, fuzzy feelings of 2008 out of his system.

Dan Amira reports President Obama signed a guestbook at Westminster Abbey with the date: 24 May 2008.

It is a great privilege to commemorate our common heritage, and common sacrifice.

Barack Obama

24 May 2008

“Granted, 2008 was a great year for him, and we might try to live it for as long as possible, too, if we were him.”

Perhaps the president merely has a far-reaching perspective, viewing election years like regular years.  Come on, how many of you wrote 2010 in January?

With second presidential terms historically being years of few achievements (and big scandals), 2008 might just be the time where Obama will always exist; a exciting year more than an exciting presidency.
