Yeah, but Obama's all about shattering barriers.

Presumably he'd have to do something to get another one.

He certainly could nominate someone for a Nobel Peace Prize (as both a Nobel laureate and a world leader). Who would it be? Biden? Rahm? Hillary? Elena Kagan? Pelosi?

Since he's given nothing to the left wing of the Dems despite their supporting him early on, perhaps he could nominate Kucinich for a Nobel Peace Prize (and Dennis would actually deserve one....)

Default Will Obama repeat as Nobel Peace Prize winner?

I certainly hope so, as confirmation of its earned lack of value. Gee, then O'man could claim the monetary prize as unearned income on his taxes.

Maybe they should come up with a Nobel "shoot them to pieces" prize so the other side could take home a small trophy.

If McCain won the Presidency would they award him with the Peace Prize?
He had done for peace not less than Obama by that time.
We all know that wouldn't happen because that was the Not-Being-Bush Prize.

If the Nobel Peace Prize was given to a world leader I would pick Nicholas Sarkozy (President of France). Sarkozy brokered the truce between Russia and the Republic of Georgia which ended the Russian invasion and the complete crushing of the Georgian nation by Russia.

He should have never won in the first place.
