Anybody with a shred of logical thought knew that already......

Why did he get to the platform he was at though???? Hmmm?

That's the tea party for you - they can't even stand members of their own party.

Goodness - how in the world could they ever agree with the opposition party?

Well, let's not kid ourselves. I highly doubt he REALLY wanted this presidency, considering the inevitable collapse on the horizon, and why any man would want that on his watch I will never know.

By Obama seeking this second term, history is going to be pretty unfavorable to him.

Oh, I think he wanted it all right. One does not go through all the campaign nonsense if they don't really want it. All he has done for the past 8 years is try to be President.

And, I think he REALLY believed that he was the guy who could turn the whole thing around.

In hindsight, perhaps he is realizing he dodged a bullet. Which - I agree - he did.

I suppose you are right, this wasn't his first attempt. I guess I just can't understand why anyone would want it. The whole idea of it, to me, is nauseating. Must be a power thing.

If he was the worst candidate in history, why did they back him whole heartily until he lost?

At least have integrity if you make a bad decision, and take personal responsibility for it.

Even Romney's own camp can't do that, do you think teabaggers will.

Yes, because your fringe left is a beacon of integrity, too... Get real, you are way over-the-top with your partisanship.

I can't for the life of me figure out why anyone would want to be President either. No thank you very much!

You know they all have to have ego's the size of Japan to even THINK about it.
