Mark Krikorian NRO: Nobel Prize is "Obama's Carter whacking-the-bunny-rabbit moment."
Nothing, Nada, Jack, and Squat
The prize seems not just premature but embarrassing. I don't know if there'll be a "Nobel backlash," as Mickey Kaus speculates — instead, this just reinforces the Saturday Night Live meme that Obama has done nothing. This really might be his Carter whacking-the-bunny-rabbit moment.

1. Cry for me National Review! Like Obama even actively campaigned for it.
They are actually starting to come off as jealous children.

3. Pretty pathetic when you have to cite SNL to back up your political opinion.

5. Obama did nothing--except NOT be a Republican.

And their new 20% approval rating backs it up, especially right after their cheering the US not getting the Olympic bid.

Sounds like a gig for the DU "Cry Me A River" String Quartet...
