It's Hillary in 2012, if Obama even makes it that far

I’m enjoying this week as much as anyone, but the “Obama Is Toast” victory dance is premature, just as the “Conservatism Is Dead” mantra was premature in ‘08. If recent events (economic, political, etc.) have taught us anything, it’s that the present trend doesn’t always continue. So much can happen in three years that we can’t possibly foresee.

Sage council. Keep your powder dry.

it's that the only thing that matters to 95% of politicians is getting re-elected. They will sell their soul to anyone who will ensure re-election and abandon any principle and any friend who serves as a drag on their electoral hopes.

We'll soon see who are the politicians and who are the suicide bombers posing as politicians.

I think the revelation will be eye opening.

I predict there are a lot more suicide bombers on the Left than we've suspected.

Somewhat agree, but that wasn’t my point. The media will throw Hillary at us like she is the new great (white) hope, the fix, the glass ceiling... blah, blah, blah.... and any rep is just more Bush... blah, blah, blah. If Palin, then they will just claim she is just a mayor with no experience... and hillary is SO SMART. blah, blah, blah....

His total approval was 44%, it amazes me that it's that high.

Most of us have been in the position of making a bad mistake but not wanting to admit it, especially openly. There is a vast reservoir of Obama voters who will defend their vote. They don't want to admit they were wrong in 2008, because they think it would make them look stupid or silly or whatever, so they resist openly recanting their decision. In the privacy of the voting booth it will be a different matter however.

15 minutes of fame is all that's needed to get hooked. Fame is extremely addictive. Once experienced, many people will do anything for more of it.

I respectfully disagree. I think Hillary will resign after the 2010 elections. She will be frustrated that Obama is using people like Mitchell to deal with the Middle East, etc. Then she’ll have the foreign policy experience of Sec’y of State, but be able to leave the Administration and campaign as an outsider.

This doesn’t need to be plausible to conservatives, but it will be to progressives.

<She has never done anything, other than being married to a successful politician

During the campaign, I used to visit a major Hillary site. Unlike her supporters, I just don’t see this woman as being that accomplished, nor much of a feminist ideal.

I’m a lawyer, had my own practice, and anything I’ve done professionally, I did without a man. I know many accomplished woman who can say the same thing. This isn’t to knock men, it’s to say that we didn’t have some powerful or famous coattails to hang onto to make our way in the world.

She’s no role model for me and I don’t see how she can be so for any thinking woman.

Thanks for posting this. I really enjoyed the graphic description of how much trouble Obama and Democrats are in... really made me laugh.

LOL! Now that would be a matchup.

I can just picture Hillary saying; “Well I’m a hunter too!”; just before she blows her foot off.

The she-devil is only slightly better than Barry. And her Narcissistic Personality Disorder is second only to Barry’s.

"President Obama has no chance at a second term. And eroding chances of completing his first one."

Sometimes, people have very short memories. No one should be taking Obama for granted, and what happened last week is hardly the beginning of a funeral dirge. Bill Clinton's approval number were below 40% - perhaps even closer to 30% - before the '94 mid-terms. Sure, the Dems got shellacked in the mid-terms, but just 24 months later, Clinton's approval had completely turned around and he strolled to reelection. When Clinton left office, his approval rating - even after impeachment - was close to 60%, and he would have easily been reelected.

We are making a huge mistake writing off Obama and his Chicago machine, and we do so at our own peril.

Hey, the Dems really don't need Rush and Operation Chaos, Obama and Co. are doing just fine on their own.

I can’t stand the guy and would love to see him exposed for the sham that he has always been but are you all saying that we would get BIDEN as CIC? Good Lord.

I don’t know if Hill could have been a better president than obama. Look at her now, she’s aged at least three decades and this is only the first year.

But you gotta love her black pantsuits.

You make an excellent point about the variable of human nature, it isn’t fully reflected by polling.
