May he suffer a defeat of Mondale proportions.
“If she wins FL, MI, MN, OH, WI, IN and PA then it is over.”
Palin winning PA?
And MN? And MI?
Does she poll well in those states? I thought she wasn’t well-liked in those.

The unemployment will sink him; he will not be the Dem candidate in 2012.
Best damn lobstah is further up the coast - in ‘native Mainiac’ territory.
the best lobstah place ain't fancy - it's a four generation lobstah pound out over the bay - overlooking the islands.
Thousands of the red bugs just off the boats to pick from, boiled in old brick ‘ovens’ and eaten out over the water...where the Passagassawaukeag meets the Penobscot.
You come as is or bring the fixin’s: tablecloth, spirits, salads, fruit, cheese ‘n crackers, deserts - then add the lobstah, steamers ‘n mussels - and corn on the cob.
Don't get no bettah.
2012 bump for later........
Even Jimmy Carter got his party's nomination. You can't beat somebody with nobody and it doesn't look like there's any Democrat who will challenge him.
If Hillary does, it may change things, but politicians like the patronage: so long as Obama has jobs for them and money to pass around they aren't going to turn on him.
It would be interesting if Russ Feingold challenges Obama from the left, but I don't see him losing the nomination. Democrats invested too much in him to back away easily.
-——The unemployment will sink him-——
The coming war will likely, but not guaranteed, save him
“Clinton’s personal scandals hadn’t surfaced in 96, the economy was rolling pretty good, and Clinton STILL didn’t win a majority of the popular vote. It was his SECOND plurality win aided by HRP.”
IIRC Clinton never won more than 43% of the popular vote. I am not sure about ‘96 but if Perot hadn’t been around in ‘92 he most likely would not have won.

Anyone watching the globe set afire recently...and wondering how quick that happened?
How the hell could this Country killing unknown foreigner ever get on another ballot let alone win anything in the states. He belongs back with his tribe.
The donors won’t back a loser; they’ll support a (very) white, probably Southern, Christian (at least in name) candidate with no track record. There will be a face-saving exit for Obama, who certainly doesn’t want to be the first Mulatto to lose a presidential election.
There won’t be a war; we can’t deal with the 2 we’re in now (and the world knows it).
That's what I suspected, but can they find one who won't hurt Obama more than the Republican?
There are a lot of anti-Palin independents out there who might vote for a Bloomberg-type candidate, but a lot of them would vote for Obama if it were a two-candidate race, so having the third candidate in there only hurts Obama.
If a third party candidate were to hurt the Republicans and help Obama it would have to be something conservatives inflict on themselves.
Of course that doesn't exclude the possibility of some nutty billionaire gumming up the works with a self-financed campaign, but will people fall for it this time?
I think NJ lost an electoral vote as well, though I seriously doubt NJ has a “favorable” rating for the Kenyan Pirate. While we have urban toilets, they don’t have enough people to offset the tax revolt that put Chris Christie in office and is suspicious of Muslims after 9/11 (since probably 90% of the non-urban population here now believes he IS a Muslim).

In this story on telling the NAACP to “kiss my butt” = is not entirely accurate. He said “kiss my ass.”
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/postpartisan/2011/01/paul_lepages_offensive_rsvp_to.html
He says ‘no welfare to illegals
He's cutting the EPA off at the knees
He's opening up a lot of locked up land.
etc.
He came up the hard way - on the street at age 11 - got college, rose to manager of one of our biggest discount chains, elected mayor in a deep red city (Waterville) - and got RE-elected.
He doesn't mince words and doesn't suffer fools gladly.
the Tea Party got this one right.
Here's his bio - I think you'll like it!
In other words, the actual results of bammy's communist Presidency.
But the eeevile conservative “haters” were ALL racist when this EXACT scenario was put forth at the time of The Øne's Coronation.
Now that is reality, the eeevile conservative haters will be at fault because they MADE the $5/gallon gas and 8 - 10% inflation come true due to some nebulous indefinable form of "greed." (eyes rolling)
It's like babysitting four year olds. Non-stop loud crying, name calling and finger pointing.
