Call me crazy, but I think if Obama is on the ballot in November, it will be a blowout of epic proportions, that makes the Democrat losses in 2010 look like nothing but a Preview of Coming Attrations.

Not a blowout, not even close.

People knew exactly what kind of person Obama was, where he was lacking, and exactly what kind of President he would be in 2008, and he still won.

In fact, Romney is even less inspiring than McCain/Palin, and he's got so much baggage, the media cannot wait to unload on him. It's going to be brutal, plus Romney does best when he can outspend his opponents, and he won't be able to outspend Obama.

We in this forum knew, but there are the great unwashed who only get their news from the lame stream media that didn't vet Obama. There's a whole bunch of moderates and independents who don't think about politics until the last few weeks before an election.

I knew a lot of people who had no clue what kind of person Obama was, where he was lacking, or what he would do as President. They knew a few things:

1. They wanted to vote for the first black President.

2. The believed the tripe about the economy being the worst in 50 years.

3. They believed the tripe about Gitmo.

4. They believed that Obama would be the first post racial President.

The last reason is very important since anyone who believed that has to be pretty disappointed.
