I think we will see a replay of the 1980 Carter re-election campaign.

First a strong primary challenge (can you say HILLARY?), which will leave him so bloody and battered he will stagger into an arse-whoopin’ against the Republican nominee in the fall. Like Pat Caddell on the Friday before Election Day, Bam’s pollsters are going to tell him he will lose, and exactly how badly he is going to get his butt whacked, and we will be treated to a weekend of deer-in-the-headlight footage a la Jimmy Carter.

just force him to provide eligibility information before being allowed on the state ballot

of course, i know they won’t do this.

this one item alone proves to me we are a lawless country.

we’re not a nation of laws... but a nation run by a set of cute guidelines enforced on those the current political administration does not favor for those that is does.

There are a LOT of people on the FedGov payroll who do not care for Dear Precedent. It's not politic of them to say so -- and the consequences of airing a negative opinion of him can be dire.

In my husband's office anti-Zero sentiment is something like four-to-one, but the supervisor is a raging 0-bot, and she's given horrible evals to those who have been critical of the One.

What an idiot liberal. The world is about to undergo a convulsive transformation, and he is talking like everything is going on like it always has. Obama is DESTROYING our Republic. And at some point, he and/or his proxies (Black Panthers, NAACP, illegals) are going to spark a new Civil War. And then Obama getting elected is going to be last thing on this pathetic liberal’s mind; he will be looking for his next meal.

Jay, first, in case you hadn’t noticed, your guy’s not Reagan.

Second, George Bush (41) had ratings just slightly lower than God right after the Gulf War in 1991. Remember his second term?

Speaking of which, third, I remember 1992, and it’s not like anybody from the Democrats looked likely to beat Poppy. Especially Bill Clinton. (Heck, Bubba won the nomination because except for Jerry Brown, pretty much nobody else thought it was worth running for that year.) I remember Rush Limbaugh sending one of the staffers downstairs and across the street from his studio at WABC to Madison Square Garden, where the Democrats were having their convention, with pitchers of grape Kool-Aid. The implication being that the Dems were basically committing electoral suicide by nominating Bubba. Again...how’d that work out? This isn’t going to be like ‘92, where nobody wanted to be the lamb on the altar. There are any number of Republican candidates who want into this race like Bubba wants into Lindsay Lohan, who think they can beat your guy like a drum...and some of them just might be right.

And finally...Hillary wants to be president. Hillary would love to be the first female president. She’s probably never in her adult life not wanted it. She wanted it when she was in Arkansas, she wanted it in ‘92, she wanted it in ‘96, she wanted it when she ran for Senate in 2000, and she certainly wanted it in ‘08. She still wants it. She is looking for the next realistic opportunity to make a run at it. Believe this like Billy Graham believes in Jesus: The moment Hillary Clinton thinks she has a realistic shot at beating Barack Obama for the nomination and then winning the general election, it doesn’t matter how much or even if she genuinely enjoys being Secretary of State, she is out of there.

We’ll see. The Republicans need to get their act together, that’s for sure. I think things will get much worse for 0bama in the future as tax cuts are set to expire, which will further exacerbate the unemployment rate and economic decline. Further, a lot of stupid people thought that voting for 0bama would somehow make up for past racial problems. Now they are finding that having 0bama in office seems to be making these racial tensions much worse, not better.
