Author Says Terror War Is Obama’s New Nightmare

Terrorism was a non issue for President Obama during most of the first year of his administration. That has now changed, and changed dramatically, says author and political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson. The failed Northwest airline bombing and reports that Obama was briefed weeks before that the threat level of a possible terrorist attack had grown again raised serious questions about the Obama administration’s readiness and willingness to deal with a serious terrorist threat,

In his new book How Obama Governed: The Year of Crisis and Challenge, author and political analyst Earl Ofari Hutchinson detailed how the issue of terrorism and the fight against it was the Achilles Heel for Obama during the presidential campaign. Hutchinson predicted that terrorism and the war in Afghanistan would pose major challenges to the Obama administration. Hutchinson also notes in the book that the twin issues of war and terrorism will be crucial political attack points for a resurgent GOP.

Hutchinson notes that polls during the presidential campaign showed that terrorism continued to be a prime concern of a significant percent of American voters and that they wanted the Obama administration to take a tough stance on it. In the wake of the failed airline attack, Obama’s performance and actions in the anti-terror battle, notes Hutchinson, is and will be even more closely scrutinized by the public.

Hutchinson predicted in How Obama Governed that the terrorism issue would take on growing significance in 2010. He also noted that any perceived weakness or lack of resolve by the Obama administration in the anti-terrorism fight will have a profound impact on the congressional elections in November 2010, and beyond.

In How Obama Won, Hutchinson gives a no holds barred assessment of the make and break issues that confront Obama in 2010. These are the issues that will determine whether Obama can really deliver on his lofty promise of hope and change.
