Clinton made it two years after his re-election before the GOP worked up the spine to try impeachment. Obama has a lot more going against him than Clinton. The way I see it, the choice is two more years of Obama followed by two years of complete gridlock with Biden making the liberals look like buffoons ... or eight years of the liberal republican Romney destroying the "conservative" brand for decades to come followed by at least four years of a liberal democrat president after him. It's a no-brainer for me. I'd prefer a redo in four years with a strong conservative presence than a redo in twelve years with the a weak conservative presence. But if you want to support Romney and help redefine "conservatism" in his liberal image further destroying America, go for it. It's your right.

Impeachment of 0bama? That’s your strategy? No, wait...how about an asteroid striking Washington DC and destroying all the liberals at once? It’s probably more realistic, coz if 0bama wins, he’s probably keeping the Senate, and given the way the pendulum swings, he’ll have the House in 2014. At the very least, the last time I read the Constitution it takes two-thirds of “members present” to convict on Articles of Impeachment. That’s 67 senators, meaning you need fewer than 34 democrat senators. Not one of them will break ranks to vote impeachment. The democrats will never have less than 34 Senate seats.

But hey, if you want to live your fantasy of 0bama being impeached, go ahead. It’s your right.

Very well said. Also -- as we've learned here in California -- the Democrat to follow Romney would make Obama look like John Birch, just as the Democrat to follow Schwarzenegger -- Jerry Brown -- makes Gray Davis look like Eisenhower.

Worst of all is risking a landslide for Romney and giving him what would certainly twisted into a popular mandate for his "progressive style of governing."

ABO is so incredibly short-sighted -- but then again, hysteria and fear, which is what fuels ABO, almost always lead to bad decisions that are hugely regretted later.
