Will Obama Run...
9-17-11 | Awgie

Posted on 09/17/2011 7:07:40 AM PDT by Awgie

Simple question...Will Obama run?

As the economy worsens, scandles mount, poles decline...will Obama stay the course and go down with the ship?

Or will he give way to a new democrat nominee either through a primary challenge or resignation?

The democrats do not play the rules. They will do anything to hold power. The dynamics of the situation are not in their favor. It is important to anticipate all possible scenerios.

“...poles decline”.
Seems like there’s more poles than ever around here.

A simple answer - His ego won’t let him NOT run.

LBJ left office, and the democrats ended up with the 1968 convention. I don’t think that would be fun to watch again, or maybe it would.

As disgruntled as his party is right now, you’ll see a lot of pressure for him to step aside. There are already calls for Hillary to run. You’re right, the DNC does not want to lose power, but I’ll guess he will be stuborn and run anyway. I certainly hope he runs.

Would tend to agree, of course. However, there is the mitigating factor of the dossier the Left has on him...

Random thoughts:

*If he quits, does he get to keep his campaign fund?

*Legacy: If he quits now, his presidency will be seen as a colossal failure (think Carter times ten)

*Will Soros let him run?

Exactly.

Narcissists are incapable of consciously limiting their dysfunctional ego.

He will have to inflict his 0bama Train Wreck on America to the bitter end of his failed and ONLY four year term.

True American Leaders would make the decision to put the “Country First”, but in his case that’s never ever a consideration.

NY Times' "Freudian Slip": "It is time for Mr. Obama to think about what Lyndon Johnson would do..."

Whatever happens, it won't be his decision. If the Liberal Socialist Machine decides Hillary has a better chance, Zer0 will quickly be the one under the bus.

He will run.
He will not do a LBJ.
He will be Carter II.
Any primary challenger will be destroyed, politically, personally and financially.
He is a Marxist ideologue, schooled in the Alinsky mold.
He will destroy what he considers ‘his’ rather than see it taken from him...............

BTW, I was in DC yesterday taking friends from Nicaragua on a walking tour and "O" passed within 15' of me in his "Beast". The effect was tangible. When I told a good friend, he said, "Go immediately to Southern States (farm supply store) and get DC anti-liberal removal spray and dip. Have wife spray you down at once. Repeat every 2 days."

Some time ago Obama said one of things he liked the most about being President was the fact there were “men with guns following his daughter’s around”. . .These people do not give a darn about the United States of America, they simply like all the amenities that come with the job. Michelle would be hard pressed to give up all of her servants. Obama isn’t finished trying to destroy the country. It would show good leadership if the DNC dumped this fraud, but they are also too attached to power to do the right thing.

Is there anyone on the planet who doesn't think Hillary and Obozo made a deal in 2008 whereby she'd get the SoS job in return for dropping out of the race? In return, she gets 4 years worth of international experience...her most glaring shortcoming...for her next bid in 2012. No, I think even the most ardent lib realizes that Obozo has sunk his own ship. When people say you're worse than Jimmy Carter, you have real problems.
