It is not “Willard’s” fault.

It is really hard to defeat an incumbent president.

It has been done 3 times in the last hundred years (Hoover, Carter, Bush 41).

And it took the great depression to get Hoover out, the almost great depression to get Carter out and a recession plus Ross Perot to get Bush 41 out.

Yes, yes it is.

And Obama’s approval hasn’t been getting better — almost anyone would have been able to beat Obama if they were solidly for fixing our debt problem. I bet Ron Paul, even with the number of Republicans that think he’s an unelectable kook, would have been able to win.
