I would have said the same about the nationalization of GM before he did it.

This is different. The economy is so bad that the Messiah is actually a target for even his past supporters. He’s losing everyone but his hard core supporters, but if someone offered a better deal to them, then they would walk too.

But it's not the same. Not everyone holds stock in GM, nor did every American even grasp the full ramifications of what the government did with that company.

Suspension of a national election, on the other hand, is something that even the dimmest bulbs in the country will totally understand.

Suspending the November elections would be tantamount to a suspension of the Constitution and every basic tenet of agreement that holds this nation together (no matter how tattered the fabric). Remember that the elections would be suspended for everyone, not just Republicans.

Do you really think that that would go down well with that segment of the public who still supports him? Or, do you think they'd be outraged enough by this to begin calling for his impeachment?

Trust me, suspending the November elections would create an upheaval in this country like you've never seen.
