Taming Obama's Black Dog

 We're not talking about Bo here. Churchill called his occasional deep depressions Black Dog. There is mounting  speculation that Obama might be similarly afflicted. Certainly the loner behavior described in several credible recent pieces including this one in The Washington Post supports the idea.  Gawker  has information that The New York Times is working on a  similar story. When Obama-friendly media start asking such questions, we know there's a problem. There is no shame in being  clinically depressed. It happens to most of us at some point in our lives. He can still  step aside honorably for 2012. Hillary  is probably more electable, anyway, and would vastly preferable to a man who  may become mentally unstable.
