Right now, I feel like three and a half years will not be enough for him to accomplish much and it seems like his efforts to "fix" the economy may not be working after all, at least not quickly enough. I feel like the next three and half years will fly by with the way the economy is, and people will either give him another four years or look for something totally different. What is your prediction?

We're just entering the depression. It will take a while to bottom out, Obama or not.

I think it is entirely too early to begin making assumptions. It hasn't even been a year since his inauguration. What are the prominent republican candidates, if any?

His most formidable opponents for '12 are currently Newt Gingrich and Dick Cheney aka Old and Older. Looking real good for Obama today.

It's way too early to tell. One thing that I'm pretty sure of is that the passion and excitement for Obama won't be there in 2012 like it was last year. Especially if the economy stays the same or get's worse. There wont be the same grass roots level of support and I would expect voter turnout to be lower. Republican turnout might be higher since many conservatives strongly disliked McCain.

Way to early to tell if his policies actually will be helpful or very harmful, I'd say we need another 2 years to determine if he should be "re-elected"..
