It all started long before Obama was a twinkle in his Mama's eye. I call it natural progression.

That's just one letter away from goober.

You're right, Les, and the only time that it ever became scaled back was with Harding and Coolidge (in response to TR, Taft,and Wilson).

Are you referring (goober) to the Carter Presidency, dmarks?

Actually, looking at the definition of goober:

"A person who is a combination of a Loser, idiot, clutz, bigot, naive, arrogant, oblivious and generally lacking insight to the world, very opinionated but is never perceived as a smart or charismatic."

The first section contains some pointless insults, true. And the last part: Obama is often perceived as smart and charismatic. But the middle part about lacking insight and being opinionated fits Obama fairly well.
