I would be happy if he's re-elected as long as he does more to improve things for our nation.

I wonder why this question is being asked so early in his term?
It hasn't even been 2 years.

Yea he wanted to show party unity. It's the same reason Bush and Cheney endorse moderates like Hutchinson.

We're not sheep. We know who and who not to vote for, and Corzine and Obama are about as opposite as you'll find in a political party these days.

And conservatives were calling us drama queens?

Pretty scary when the guy isn't even a year into his first term and people come up with these irrational conclusions and some are even supporting the idea he gets killed.

I'm really glad they are in the minority!

Me ... I will be grateful for having 4 more years of intelligent thinking in the White House!
what has he done that is great?

You're going to have to explain this one to me. I know the Baldwins are TV actors but I honestly wouldn't know one from the other. I just don't watch much TV. I'm sure it's a good joke but I just don't pay much attention to celebrities and their political opinions. Over the years I've developed a defensive reflex. When commercials come on or celebrities start voicing their opinions, I just automatically tune out.

I asked this question because some people have an extreme hatred of him, much more so than Bush hatred, and wanted to find out how they would deal with this for 8 years.

Okay IMALERT -- Here is your chance to shine. Granted, it has not been 2 years. It has been almost 1 year. Name 1, ONE, UNO, UN, OR ANY VARIATION OF THE NUMBER 1 thing he has done in his 10+ Months for this country?

I'll give you 3 more years to come up with ONE thing.
