if the Republicans shoot themselves in the foot (as they have done in the past), Obama will be in like Flynn in 2012. The Republicans will really have to play heads up ball and get some job creation in the private sector in the next two years. It truly is the economy- stupid.
Republicans have to pass popular legislation out of the House and let the Democrat Senate and Obama publicly kill it.
Face it, the economy isn’t going to improve much as long as Ogabe is POTUS and the Donks hold the Senate.
Which also brings another good point: having a Donk Senate prevents Ogabe and his henchmen from blaming Republicans for everything that goes bad. They still hold the majority of power. That combined with the vast numbers of GOP state legislative seats gained just in time for redistricting spells doom for the National Socialist Democrat Worker’s Party in 2012— provided the GOP doesn’t screw up again.
