We are now at TWO HUNDRED TWENTY EIGHT DAYS (228) until Obama gets canned. My math was as bad as Obama's budget math. Or as bad as Obama's counting of U.S. states.
Look Trace. I'm concerned about your righties. You're setting yourselves up for a dissappointment. Look at your candidates. 2012 is not going to be your year. President Obama isn't going anywhere.
Santorum is too far into the Right Wing Christianity to be taken seriously by the majority of the Country....even by Christian Conservatives. Doesn't matter as he is not going to go much farther.
Mitt's religion and track record as Governor of Massachusetts are going to hinder his electability. The only Christians and Catholics who would really be cool with a Mormon President are the ones who would vote Democrat in the first place. Besides, Conservatives are not cool with Universal Health Care, and Romney would surely continue with, and expand upon, Obama Care.
Mitt is going to get the GOP nod....and lose.
Gingrich can give Obama a run for the money and is the only "mainstream" Republican candidate that can appeal to a wide variety of Conservative voters, even if it is just a vote for the lesser of two evils. Doesn't matter, though. He's not going to be the GOP candidate.
Ron Paul has a serious chance of winning. I'm not a Ron Paul enthusiast, but he has the ability to sweep the under 40 vote from all political affiliations. Since the GOP will not send him to the elections on Nov. 2, he will win if he runs as an Independent.

Don't blindly accept the meme barfed out by the MSM that his election is a shoe-in. The opposite is true.
The GOP does not know what it is doing. If they were on the ball, the Dems would not be putting all of their faith into a candidate that had an approval rating of only 38% just six months ago.

On second thought...I was certain that Obama's record as President was going to single-handidly force a Republican victory in the next election....however....seeing the goon squad that the Republicans are sending through the Primaries gives me second thought. There was no way that Gore or Kerry could win against Bush (although Kerry had a better shot). The idea is that the Dems knew after 8 years of Bush, Jr. there would surely be a Dem victory...and there was. This strategy has been used time and time again and would make sense from a strategic standpoint considering Obama's low approval rating. Look at the Hilary vs. Obama debacle that went down and all of those Hilary supporters who threatened mutiny. And Biden? Seriously? McCain could have won (even with Palin on board), but enough people were too tired of 8 years of Bush, Jr., they didn't want to take a chance on another Republican (and c'mon, was Kerry really a viable candidate against Bush, Jr.? The Dems could have sent a stronger candidate....but didn't) even with goofy old Biden as VP.
So, perhaps this is all intentional to help insure a Republican victory in 2016.
