I expect him to be back in 2016. After all, he will still be younger than McCain was in '08 (I think).

Or maybe he will pass the professional candidate torch to Tag. And then Willard can serve his country (like he failed to do during the Viet Nam War) by working on his son's campaign.

Really?
You must be colorblind. Looks like a "sea of blue" to me there.

RealClearPolitics - Election 2012 - Pennsylvania: Romney vs. Obama


I know you are scared, but you DO have to face the truth.

Even MICHIGAN is now close!! 49% O and 46% R. WIthin the margin of error. Really? That is a shock and you know it. A month ago, O had a 14 point lead. Again, wake up!

Romney has gained there - but it's still a "sea of blue".

All of these things will be easier if we start in 2013 instead of 2017.

I agree with you that Congress went overboard with financial regulations. I think a little more risk is a good thing. Then again, we don't really know what the full regulatory impact will be as the regulations aren't completely baked yet. The rest of your post is just shop worn, tired, and inaccurate republican talking points.

Oh, we already know that Obama's financial regulation is hammering our community banks out of existence, although it will take a few years. Most of the remaining unknowns in the regs have to do with how large a fraction of the regs get totally subverted by the "too big to fail" institutions, the clear winners in all of this. Ironic, isn't it? Dodd Frank is pro-plutocrat to the max. And the President claims anyone who peeps about it is "trying to go back to the failed policies that got us into this mess." Puhleeeeze!
