As the glamour of Barack Obama fades, Americans are likely to turn to entirely different presidential candidates next time, argues Toby Harnden in Washington.
You could call it the revenge of the ugly white guys. After electing a handsome sleek, biracial - and untested - man as President last time, Americans may well be ready for something entirely different in 2012.
Remember that you heard it here first: make way for the short, pudgy, balding white fellow who's been there and got the scars - and the results - to prove it.
In many respects, Barack Obama was the ultimate candidate for the television age. He looked fantastic and sounded wonderful. He soared above politics and made people feel better about themselves.
Ability to get things done? Track record? Such petty considerations seemed beside the point in 2008 for Obama was the very culmination of history. It was almost as if the then Senator for Illinois symbolised the end of politics, the point at which the perfect candidate drew a line under grubby partisanship.
Now, Americans have woken up from that dream and are living with the hangover. Neither history nor politics ended when Obama's ascended to the Oval Office. The recession is biting, unemployment is still hovering just below 10 per cent, the deficit is soaring and there is still gridlock in Washington.
Having elected two Senators as President and Vice-President for the first time since 1960, Americans are likely to look once again towards the more traditional stable for commanders-in-chief - the governor's mansions.
As the Republican challengers to Obama begin to prepare the ground for their 2012 runs, two hitherto unlikely potential candidates are gaining support among party insiders.

But ANYTHING to keep that unscrupulous, unctuous back-stabbing bastard Romney off the ticket.
Indeed! Well said Gene Eric.
(great tagline by the way LoL about “hope redistribution, here’s your change” one of the more clever ones I’ve seen!)
>To wake up to President Limbaugh?
On the Chaos alone it would be amusing to have Pr. Limbaugh. Other than that though, I think he is a well thought man who would have knowledgeable [instead of political] advisers and would actually listen to them.
:)
Glenn Beck?
“He looked fantastic and sounded wonderful”
Are my eyes *and* ears failing me?!?
I *never* thought either thing about him.
In fact, I couldn’t [and still can’t] bear to look at or listen to him because my instincts screamed out “Pure evil!”.

Yup, a patriot, a woman...with common sense values...would be “entirely different”.
Oh, yes, he's just so handsome!

And hung up.
I’d elect Clarence Thomas.
He’s not a short pale white guy.
He’s also not a Moslem communist traitor.
Your wish is my command...
0bama is just Henry Higgin’s Eliza Doolittle ala My Fair Lady, as directed by Bill Ayers and Rahm Emanuel, with special credits to the symbiotic groupthink of academia and the news media.
The opposite of 0bama is a leader with substance and character. Race and Gender being no factor in the equation.
LOLOLOL!!!
“Wanted: short, fat white man to succeed Barack Obama”
It’s not the looks, MORON - it’s the values!!
I guess since the MSM started calling Michelle Obama "attractive"...
Well, "handsome" is this writer's opinion, IMO, Obanga is ugly, his soul is ugly, & it shows in his face! He turns my stomach to watch him (so I don't)!
How about a capitalist loving Christian who loves AMERICA?
Instead of this marxist muoosie kenyan?
Yeah, no kidding.
