Plus job creation and infrastructure repairs, and tweaking health care to make it closer to the ideal that so many voted for. Seeing the GOP get smashed would be cool, though.

I had high hopes for the guy, but he's a weak indecisive leader and his wife has that typical bad attitude you see in certain parts of the city.
The man has done zero, time to move on.
I'll root for Cain maybe.
I never think the family of any politician should be brought into the conversation. IMO, Michelle and the children should be left alone.

With that said, only the people who are in favor of handouts would vote for Obama. Obama has done one thing well, and that's dethroning Carter as the number one worst POTUS in modern times.

So you put party over the country? And some people wonder why the country is in the trouble it is?

No need for Obama to destroy the Republican party..... they are doing a pretty good job themselves.

The results of the 2010 election show that to not be true.

Your topic is "Why would any sane person want Obama re-elected"

Because they are sane, the other side is insane, Cain? maybe he'll sign a book for you. I doubt if he'll give you one.

Yes, the 2010 elections, elections waged on "death panels" and jobs, got Republicans the House. So what have the Republicans done about jobs? They spent their time writing bills about gay marriage, privatizing Medicare and Sharia law -- not a single jobs bill. Worse, they nixed the President's jobs bill. That's why Congressional Republicans have an 8% approval rating, lower than Congress as a whole and voters have buyer's remorse about the Tea Party candidates they elected.

As for Mr. Obama, he leads all potential contenders that the GOP offers.

LOL! Wanting the book "given" to you, instead of buying it? Gotta love liberals.

Liberal logic. Choose a certain failure and doom the nation to four more years of misery due to indecision.

Perhaps we should re-evaluate who is eligible to vote.
