Leading liberals are already thinking the unthinkable: Challenging President Obama for the Democratic nomination in 2012. According to a report on the left-leaning Huffington Post website, MSNBC host Keith Olbermann and Eugene Robinson, an African-American national columnist for The Washington Post, discussed just such a possibility Thursday night.

So much for all that hope and change....

'Leading liberals' (read self loathing left-wing moonbats) are delusional if they think the electorate is going to vote in a President more left-wing than Obama. It goes to show how insulated they are in their elite little echo chamber. Basically there does not exist a plurality of voters who hate America or their fellow Americans as much as Olbermann imagines so let them put up their hero Hugo Chavez and see how that works out.

I wouldn't put too much into this folks ... The left wing hacks have got their panties in a bunch and that's all. (it's no different from the neo-con class, and Democrats would do well to just ignore them)

We might do well to remember that there are extreme political hacks on both sides of the fence ..
Extremism in this country needs to just go away .. left and right ..

Do you believe everything you're told? Pitiful. Obama's base will never abandon him. I don't care how much they disagree with him.

The problem with Republicans is that they don't understand honest, critical debate. Their party is the party of "you're either with us or against us." They therefore interpret internal party conflict as impending party failure.

When Keith Olbermann stops kissing Obama's behind, that is big news and it represents a shift in loyalty in my opinion.

The sentiment is mutual.

You're wrong. And for the reasons I stated above.
