That may all be true, but, even with Herman Cain as the nominee, I think the best result for Republicans will be 90% for Obama, 10% against. A lot of people are just not ready to admit they were wrong about him. This includes many stupid liberals who happen to be white. It would take a full-on depression to sway many of these people. Even in that case, many would draw the wrong conclusions and just say that Obama was not liberal enough.
Whatever happens in November 2012, it is going to be close. One, because the Republicans truly are the “stupid party” and two, far too many obamabots are still “clinging to” their “hope and change”.
Well, a lot more bad sh** can happen between now and Nov. 2012 to help them turn loose of their “hope and change”. I’m not saying they will vote Republican; I’m saying many will stay home. The new has worn off and they’ve not gotten their Cadillac.
