Here's the bet: he resigns before 2012 OR doesn't run for second term.

My bet is no elections in 2012.

There were widespread expectations of no elections from FReepers and others on the right in 2000. There were widespread expectations of no elections in 2004 and 2008 from the left. This is a common tin foil hat belief.

There will be elections in 2012.

I would love to see speculations as to what in the constitution could be used to suspend national elections and have the military go along with it. Military people like to be paid as well so it would have to take bribery on a massive scale(a la the Roman caesars) for Obama to take total control. The country is too large and widely diverse. An invasion perhaps would do it, but the temptation would be that some might join the invaders figuring that Obama’s regime would be worse than the one invading us.

The modus operandi of the current clowns is to lie and slip things under the radar, banking on the natural law abiding tendencies of the US citizens to keep any revolutionary impulses in check. They are banking on their women suporters frankly, to try to keep conservative minded men in line. That will only go so far as I’m already seeing indications that many women Obama supporters, having to deal with cranky unemployed husbands and boyfriends, are starting to turn on this administration in droves. The only reason the Dem’s are in power are because of its women supporters. Even morally conservative women go for Dem’s in high numbers because of the family nest friendly freebies the Dem’s purport to offer. What family minded woman isn’t going to be attracted to ed and med bennies that would enhance their children’s lives?

This is what I think will happen.

2010 leads to a massive GOP victory in both houses, even with Dem voter fraud. The Dems will then try to shove every socialist bill they can through between the election and swearing in of the new congress. They will use every underhanded technique they can because this is their last chance. Once Obama loses the ability to pass his agenda he because useless to the socialist cause. That is when a perfect storm of the Blago trial wake, his eligibility and a closer look at the impact of his nationalization efforts will intersect. He will then be removed either through impeachment or illness claim. Biden will be left in charge and to really muck things up for the 2012 election where the GOP is surely to win. However, the Dems will have tried to damage the country so much through Cloward-Piven that it will take a Reagan time 10 to fix it all.

One good thing that has come of the Obama presidency is that we now know who and where many of the power communists are and have been hiding. It will be easier to clean house.

Oh, the elections will come off, but the world ends on 12/23/2012 (Maya calendar).
