The real prize is 2012. Obama sees far, farther than even his own partisans. Republicans underestimate him at their peril.

He has been carried his entire life.

His cadre superiors have some skill, true.

Krauthammer points out that for Obama 2010 matters little and that Obama may well have an easier reelection strategy running against congressional Republicans.

If Republicans take control of the House, the MSM will be going all out 24/7/365 to demonize the Republican congressional leaders, just as they did to Gingrich in the 1990s.

As I mentioned in another post, I think Obama believes he can position his support even further to the left by flushing the remaining working-class white males out of the DemocRat party and then use a heavy-handed racial-division strategy with the help of the MSM to mobilize his base for reelection.

Don’t remind everybody of how long everybody has to put up with Obama and his entire administration! They all have got to leave, asap, if not even sooner, along with ALL LEFTISTS FROM BOTH MAJOR POLITICAL PARTIES AS WELL AS BOTH INDEPENDENT U.S. SENATORS AND ALL OTHER LEFTISTS, FROM EVERY POLITICAL LEVEL, AND THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE WORLD! Always work towards completely ending all political correctness throughout the entire world and replacing it with 100% commonsense throughout the entire world!

This administration scares the ba-jesus out of me! There is no way to convince me that they will simply sit back and collapse like a house of cards. Them knowing their current position and future losses, I expect them to pull some stunt at the last minute to save their butts to continue destroying our Country. I have several ideas of possibilities, but I’m not going to speculate, or don my foil hat here.
I’m still stocking up on everything and won’t relax until all these socialists are just a horrible memory.

If Democrats lose control of one or both houses, Obama will probably have an easier time in 2012, just as Bill Clinton used Newt Gingrich and the Republicans as the foil for his 1996 reelection campaign.

If the Republicans control the House in 2010, they can stop Zero in his tracks simply by refusing to fund his programs. They can't repeal. That takes two-thirds of both houses (to override a veto). But the House does have veto power over spending.

The question is, Can a GOP House dig in its heals and force Zero to play ball without, in the process, pissing off enough sheeple to reelect Zero?

Obama and his pack of merry democrats don’t have to worry about their falling numbers.... Just as long as they never ever have to hold another fair election.

As usual, Krauthammer is 100% right on all counts. Reports of Obama’s political demise have been greatly exaggerated. The overconfidence that I see around here is very troubling. Barry is in power, and we’re not. November 2010 is a long way away. 2012 might as well be a lifetime from now. And GOP control of one or both houses of Congress might actually help them win in 2012, just as it helped Bill Clinton in ‘96.

What he has left to do he knows must await his next 500 days

Or as the case may be, his next 60 days prior to his last 440 days.

Not convincing. He writes as though he is afraid these policies will work and people will be persuaded. Well, if Reagan’s vision of the synergism of government and economy worked, how can going diametrically the opposite way work? I oppose these policies because they don’t work, Europe has shown that,a long time ago. How could Obama have gotten less bang for the buck on the economy for the amount of spending in the stimulus ?

just as Bill Clinton used Newt Gingrich and the Republicans as the foil for his 1996 reelection campaign.

Difference is...Clinton moderated and went to the center after '94 out of necessity.

Obama will not do that. And he has no charm to boot.

Krauthammer has been wrong before, speaking in favor of Obama pre-election. Although his columns have been very good lately, he sometimes lacks the bigger picture.
