If Obama is being called a 'lame duck' by the Right, when did this occur? Was it the day after his inaugural and is so, his first or second? What makes the last year in office be considered a period of being a 'lame duck'? Perhaps I could see where the period after the presidential election in November and before the new president is sworn in in January, I could see how that could be called a 'lame duck' period, but not 11 months out. If so, then does the members of the House and Senate consider themselves being 'lame ducks'? It would seem like there's no difference between their situation and obama's. There is no certainty that ANY member of the House and a 1/3 of the Senate will be back next year.
