Yes, she really said it. On CNN's Piers Morgan Live Tuesday, in a brief discussion about President Obama, Barbara Walters actually said, "We thought that he was going to be - I shouldn't say this at Christmastime - but the next messiah."
Just imagine someone of Walters' stature actually admitting that she and others expected Obama to be the next messiah. Quite a thing to say on the very day a new poll finds this president with the lowest approval rating of any since Nixon.
It's also worth noting that this came the day after the Washington Post said Obama was responsible for three of the top ten biggest Pinocchios of the year, and five days after PolitiFact awarded him the Lie of the Year. Some messiah, Barbara.
