She won’t get the nomination, in part due to the massive MSM attack against her.

Do you realize more than a third of voters are just fine with having the gov’t take care of them, 50% don’t pay taxes, 40% are too busy or disinterested to pay attention to politics, but vote anyway?

Do you really believe rational thought and values based assessment have given us the President, House, and Senate we have today?

Unfortunately, no.  However, sometimes people who have been fooled can recognize it and refuse to be fooled again.  Not all voters, of course, but a certain number of voters (they are usually called "swing voters").
 
The easily swayed voters were fooled big time in 2008 and are beginning (some of them) to wake up to that fact.  Many of these folks voted against Obama's policies in the 2010 elections.  My hope is that an even larger number of this group will wake up (and the economy is the catalyst for some to wake up) and vote for whoever is running against Obama.
 
An example of where this has historical precedent:  a lot of folks who had supported Carter (why, he was just a good-hearted Christian man, etc) turned into Reagan Democrats and help Reagan sweep the electoral votes in 1980 and 1984.
 
Could be wrong, but that's what I am hoping for.
