Yea....this coming from people who voted twice for a man that makes Obama look like a political genius. Talk about NOT GETTING IT! LOL LOL LOL
If jobs aren't created, then like Bush 41, he will be a one timer, but it definitely will depend on who the GOP has to run against him. because even some of the them would vote Obama over Palin.

Does it matter? Do you honestly think if the these wingnuts nominate some right wing extremist that they stand a chance even against a left of center centrist? Not bloody likely but they can go ahead and keep fooling them selves. It will be that much more funny when they are stunned by their loss.
There's only one Republican politican in the ring at this time who stands a chance against Obama and that's Romney and I don't think he can win the Republican nomination. He's not extreme enough it appears.
Candidate who really are serious about the Republican nomination will have to get going next Feb or March in order to raise the hundreds of millions the'll need for a Presidential bid. Things will be a lot clearer by then who the Republican intend to nominate, If they decide to go a partisan right wing route, intead of steering towards the middle, Obama will serve a second term.
In addition to that, it's still more than two years till the next Presidential election. If the financial crises has been stabilized, GM and Chrysler are out of bankruptcy, if we withdraw from Iraq and have stabilized the situation in Afghanistan and have started with drawing troops, and if unemployment is down to 6% then Obama will be a shoe in for re-election as he will have succeded in rescuing this nation from the unmitigated disaster that was the Bush years.

I can only think if one man in the Republican party that stands a chance against Obama. Everyone else is to fair out of the mainstream.
Do you think lunatic fringe types like SM, Bravo, Dixie, Tinhat would vote for Romney?

me thinks you're not paying enough attention to the news lately. the GOP is on the bad end of a hostile takeover right now, and they are losing more everyday. All the democrats have to do is keep on keeping on, and they are going to lose to the 'extremists' in the TEA party.
Romney, now that is funny! too

15ppMoot is too dumb to realize what's happening. As I predicted long ago, folks will be so sick of what the Democrats have done that they will rebel, pushing the pendulum back far, far to The Right. The time for an extreme conservative candidate is near. Romney ain't it, Palin fits the bill along with others.
Oh, dear gawd...She will quit, just ask Alaska!15ppMoot is too dumb to realize what's happening.

Do you know why she quit Alaska? The reason won't be applicable if she's president.
Obama is a hell of a politican....one of the best....its his ability to lead a country that is so fuckin' awful, foreign policy sucks, economy sucks, overall a useless piece of shit....a presidential disaster but a fine community organizer....
I think Hilary Clinton is doing a great job and foreign policy, except for Iraq and Afghanistan are just fine.
Way too early. At this point, I'd say no, based on a few factors:
- Lack of a powerful GOP opponent. This is subject to change of course, because people (like Obama) can come out of nowhere, but the GOP frontrunners right now do not inspire fear among the left.
- the Dems will likely take a beating this year, barring something surprising, which will allow him to reinvent his Presidency, if he takes advantage of that
- the economy will probably be back on its feet in 2012

What has she done for you to come to that conclusion?

LOL Yeah sure. Just look at their reaction whenever anyone mentions "Palin" and "President" in the same sentence.

Uh yea....like Rand Paul in Kentucky?
Dude, if you think Palin inspires fear among the left, you've lost your mind.
Palin would be the best GOP gift to the Dems since Dole...
