I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: The Obama that will be running for president will be the Obama of late summer/fall of 2012, not the Obama of late winter/spring of 2012.
We’ll be in a completely different environment. The GM sales, caused by dealers massively bumping inventories, will be a distant memory. Gas prices, Greece defaulting along with other PIIGS related events. The lies about the economy being exposed, as reality allows them to age. It will be much, MUCH uglier by election time.
Which is why I’ve said, for two years now - and feel stronger about it today - that Obama will not finish his term. We are in the calm before the storm. A better analogy would be that we are in the eye of the storm, and it has greatly increased in power since we entered the eye.
Which one, the first or second?
You said...
“Obama will not finish his term’
I disagree. His ego is too big

If it gets the tyrant removed, I pray you are right. If he gets another 4 years and keeps the RAT machine in congress going, we are finished. I am not optimistic.
People Aren’t Smart Enough for Democracy to Flourish, Scientists Say
The democratic process relies on the assumption that citizens (the majority of them, at least) can recognize the best political candidate, or best policy idea, when they see it. But a growing body of research has revealed an unfortunate aspect of the human psyche that would seem to disprove this notion, and imply instead that democratic elections produce mediocre leadership and policies.
The most incompetent among us serve as canaries in the coal mine signifying a larger quandary in the concept of democracy; truly ignorant people may be the worst judges of candidates and ideas,
“Which is why I’ve said, for two years now - and feel stronger about it today - that Obama will not finish his term.”
I have thought that as well but am not sure how it will all play out - there are so many scandals brewing, any of which could topple him. Fast & Furious, the increased scrutiny of his background, the Brietbart tapes...coupled with continuing high gas prices and the uptick in unemployment numbers for February which the media will bury...
The irony is that Obama was never anything more than a convenient pawn in the hands of those who pull his strings but he is too arrogant to realize it. When they finally try to throw him under the bus, it could get interesting!
I will gladly suffer thru $5 gas prices if it defeats the skinny monster...
