I think Obama believes that someone up there must truly like him because he's one luck SOB. The Republicans need to invest in a clown car because they are going nowhere fast. They are so stuffed with bozos they can't even field ONE nominee in a Republican year.

Not worried, the current past rejects and losers that make up the GOP Circus act are no real threat, heck half of them hate the others and once Romney is selected as the GOP Guy, a good number of them are going to write in their new Idols name (PAUL) anyway. Obama will win with ease, The GOP is stuck repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results, the definition of crazy.

I can understand not wanting a gop nominee as the president, but this post sounds like youll actually be happy obama is in office for another term. Are you actually excited about that?

When I consider the Alternatives, yes I would much prefer him to stay in office over ANY of them. Being that the GOP cannot come up with a VIABLE Alternative, just repeating the same stupidity they did in 2008, then I will have to repeat my support of Obama. Maybe in 2016 the GOP will have leaned something and come up with a Quality candidate, but right now they showing they are sloooow learners.

This certainly makes sense; the evangelical base will accept neither Romney (a "cult" member) or Paul (too socially liberal). There will be many who vote for Paul just as many voted for Nader in 2000, splitting the total and decreasing the chances of either man to win the general election. N.B.: I am NOT saying that LDS is a cult, merely noting that many believe that to be true. A candidate's religion should never have been made a litmus test for governance.

I believe that Obama will lose in 2012....and I believe the country will thrive because of it.

I laugh at the liberals who are calling the race a whole year ahead of time. A LOT can happen in a year...like continued 9 + %.....no upswing in the economy....more and more OWS violence spilling over into the streets in the form of flash mobs...just as we saw in Great Britain not too long ago. Oh...and let's not forget...all of that supported by Obama and Pelosi. God Bless them...right Nancy? hahahaha

The Cain issue is a distraction...but it won't last forever. Eventually the Obama record of incredible failure will come to the forefront...just as it did with Jimmy Carter. The average American voter may be fairly stupid....but even a moron will know come election time that he is NOT better off than he was 4 years earlier, and in fact, he is far WORSE off....with no sign of it getting better.

When that happens, people might forgive a bit of clumsy handling of obstacles that the media has placed in the path of the republican opponent. After all....anything will look better than another 4 years of abject failure by Obama and his crew of misfits. They will say NO to another 4 years of digging this once great nation into the abyss of debt, with the Chinese as our major mortgage holder.

Chuckle all you like now libs...you have another year to enjoy and wallow.
