Is Obama a Lincoln MK II

Maybe it is just me, but in the wake of Obama's re-election, there seems to be an ever increasing momentum in media to liken him to Abraham Lincoln. There is absolutely no basis in fact or record that is determinable to make such an assertion, aside from an unabashed desire to worship him by the media. At this rate, once Obama has finished his term, regardless of his record or failures, the maddened crowd of mindless minions will one day place an Obama memorial at the other end of the mall. A monument with their own great law giver seated in a marble chair and surrounded by alabaster columns. Provided they can find a way for someone else to pay for it.

MSNBC host Chuck Todd reported that a "very smart White House aide" told him that "with this Republican, with the way politics of Washington are today, there'd still be slavery." Watch here:
"You're going to like this," MSNBC host Chuck Todd said this morning on TV. "So, I threw the Lincoln analogy at a close aide to the president last week, and he said, 'You know, with this Republican, with the way politics of Washington are today, there'd still be slavery. Lincoln wouldn't have been able to navigate the polarization between the media between this--' It was an interesting and depressing observation from this very smart White House aide."
