Obama is still living in all hype of 2008

Oh well. Time for some golf and ice cream!

I might begin to believe this when I see even one well-documented poll showing a current Republican candidate beating Obama next year. You can’t beat something with nothing.

Not according to Ras ole Dickie boy!! He’s surging back toward single digits. America loves a socialism :(

[albie]

Now he’ll REALLY play president. AF1 flights all over hell and back, flying friends all over the place and paying for their hotel, lavish parties with Hollywood stars and rap goons...wait a minute! Never mind.

It’s hard to believe that someone as arrogant, extreme left and incompetent as Barry is still beating every American running against him except for Mittens. (Rasmussen). This country is in big trouble.

[Vigilanteman]

Is little Dickie selling another book? Or does he just want us to send him money?

[rogue yam]

Soon Barry will be able to just eat his waffle.

Obama took only 2.5 years to spend the money Bush spent in 8, and now he has reached the level of popularity Bush had after 8 years, too. He is just faster, I guess.

Toes hit one important point. The idea that as the top of the ticket fails it becomes easier for the opponent to recruit good candidates. In 2010 we lost a lot of seats in the house especially the Senate that we didn't need to because good candidates didn't get into the race. We had a lot of candidates with their hearts in the right place and their heads up their hindquarters. The Senate races in Delaware, California and Nevada come to mind immediately. Had we picked those up we would be at 50 now and the dems would need everyone in order to pass anything.

Of course the converse is also true. While we will find it easier to get good candidates into the race, the Dems are going to experience a rash of retirements. Just like in NY-9 they will find themselves with a bunch of poor candidates because the "A" list ones don't want to risk a loss on their record.
