Chris Matthews, "Where is Barack Obama?"

For the second time in less than two weeks, Chris Matthews seems perplexed by the leadership of Barack Obama, which he normally praises like a heroin junkie going out of his way to get a fix. Remember, just a day or so before the election, Matthews was starting to push the blame of the coming Democratic losses in the way of Barack Obama. Now just over a week after the election, Matthews wants to know why Obama left the country rather than offer any kind of leadership to direct his party to higher ground.
