No one likes this guy. He’ll be a one term President. No matter whom the Republicans nominate, the GOP nominee will win the White House and the GOP will take over the Senate. It sucks having to wait to get rid of him!
He’s very “hapless” because he’s not very bright and would find it virtually impossible to muster his thoughts to defend a program even if somebody thought one up for him.
However, I don’t think this will necessarily lead to his loss or even to his sustained unpopularity. The extreme left of his party will come around because, after all, he’s their only hope, and they’ve gotten a lot of their people into power under him. The GOP will continue to be unpopular, particularly now that it looks so fragmented.
And the most important thing is that he will have literally over a billion dollars in his reelection campaign. I pointed out on another thread that he was known for confusion and inactivity when he was a state senator, and this had absolutely no effect once they struck up the band and he emerged from behind those Grecian columns.
The only thing that could damage him is the loss of the media, and I sincerely doubt that this would ever happen. He’s entirely a media creation and they’re not going to let him lose...and the billion dollars doesn’t hurt, either.
I beg to differ...
As of today, August 2, 2011...the razzzmussen folks have the stain's "total approval" rating sitting at 46%....exactly where it's been since mid-year 2009 (two full years).
If this rating does not drop...AND REMAIN...below 37%, the stain and his entire regime will be in power until 2016.
It's that simple.
“It sucks having to wait to get rid of him!”
Yes, well, it’s better to impeach than throw him out now and then have an eternal “what if” scenario.
