You’re far too gloomy Frantzie.
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.
To me 2012 looks like it’s setting up for a Republican POTUS and solid control of both branches of Congress.
$5 gas and the resulting economic plunge will have people yearning for the good old days of 2010 when unemployment was only 10%.
No amount of advertising (paid or MSM driven) for Baraq will overcome that.
“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.
Good post! ;-)
I liked this line:

LOL! The living will envy the dead. I tell you what 2002 to 2006 were like heaven compared to this current s**t.
Someone earlier in the post said he may ramp up inflation then turn it down. Inflation “don’t” work like that. Once the genie is out of the bottle it is hard to put it back in there.
