Keeping the White House while giving away super-majorities in the House & Senate can’t be attractive to his party or base; ask Bill Clinton after the shelling of 1994. Bill Clinton was smart enough to drop the more public elements of his far-left agenda after that. Obama still seems set on pushing that agenda.

I'm really wondering if a more centrist Democrat would challenge him in the primary. If there is a double-dip (as though there was ever even a glimmer of a recovery), I don't think that this is inconceivable.

Bill Clinton went so far to the right he was better than Dole would have been; no Republican could have passed the welfare reform (and most of the other elements of the Contract with America) without being run through the wringer.
Obama knows his Bolshevism is reviled, so it is just omitted from his media coverage. His problem is that the average voter is MUCH worse off than 3 years ago, and no spin can hide that.
