We don't live in the United States of California. Obama was put there to shepherd the auto and bank bailouts. They paid him off with Bob Dole's healthcare bill from the nineties. He's no longer needed. Go back and look at the number of years Republicans versus Democrats have served in the White House since the end of World War II. Democrats only get in once in awhile (as a result of negatively impacting economic events) and when those conditions go away, so do they. Clinton got a second term because he governed as a moderate Republican which Obama is completely incapable of. That's why Gallup's statewide race totals show him getting smashed in the Electoral College. It's a center-right nation, with or without California.

Romney has a fair chance of winning, assuming enough southern rednecks can stomach voting for a Mormon. I don't think it matters who wins. I don't see what all the fuss is about. Regardless of which "side" wins, our government works for Crony Capitalist interests. Because that's where the money is. C.R.E.A.M., get the money, dollar dollar bill ya'll.

If you look at this map and then at the 1980 Electoral results, he looks a hell of a lot like Carter. He's even starting to act like Carter, talking about how we're getting soft and running us down to our allies overseas. This isn't the sort of leadership Americans expect from a President and his administration. There are only 55 Electoral votes out here. We don't live in the United States of California!

Do you really believe Obama can win two out of three among Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida again? After the results of the 2010 House races, I don't. Did you know Scott Brown is leading Liz Warren by eight points in Massachusetts? That wouldn't be happening in an environment in which Obama would be electable to a second term. No President since FDR in 1936 has been elected to a second term with eight percent unemployment. This isn't 1936 and Obama ain't FDR. Obama was the first Democrat to carry Virginia since 1964 and North Carolina since 1976. All of the polling data we have suggests those two states and then Ohio and Florida reverting to historical norms. Gallup has Pennsylvania going for the unnamed Republican and that only happens in years that are Electoral routs for the Republicans. I really think the race is over and has been over for two years. He's no longer needed. We need a new President who's a better fit (with a compliant House and Senate) for solving the problems at hand. The bust is over and we need a change in monetary policy to wring out all this slop. That (as I've said) will require another Fed chief and another recession...just as it did when Volcker came in the door in 1979.

Oregon is pretty liberal, like CA and WA. At the end of the day, I don't think Santorum will get the nomination. His negatives are too strong and he's doesn't represent Big Business (which always wins in the end) as much as Mitt "Yes Man" Romney.

Let's say Obama gets another term. He turns out his people in the SEIU, they steal Ohio and Florida and he wins again. We know the Senate's gonna flip. That's a done deal. We know the House will remain in Republican hands because (1) it doesn't normally flip back and forth and (2) we just had redistricting in the states and that's an incumbency friendly event. So...in your scenario, we have Barack Obama waking up to Darrell Issa's bomb throwing and then the inevitable House hearings next summer leading impeachment and trial in Mitch McConnell's Senate. The Republican majority there is likely to be nowhere near as docile as the one during Clinton's trial and they almost certainly would fry him like an egg. All of this is going on while we have seven or eight percent unemployment and old people are getting 1-2 percent on a CD while continuing to receive a weekly high colonic at the grocery store and gas pump. We'll also go another two to possibly four years without a Federal budget. This would NEVER happen. It would destroy the two party system. Washington isn't Sacramento. We will have Romney (because the party fathers on both sides have probably already agreed on it and made peace) and then a Republican Senate to go with the Republican House. AND...a new Fed chief: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/ezra-klein/post/is-this-man-the-next-fed-chairman/2011/08/25/gIQAH9U1fK_blog.html What I want to know is whether or not he has Volcker's guts...because in order to clean this up, that's what it's gonna take.

Voters won't elect Obama because you have a vision of the future that CAN'T happen?? Sorry, that's not how it works. Bottom line: If the economy continues to improve over the summer and gas prices come down, then Obama probably wins. If the economy goes back in the toilet and unemployment rises and/or gas prices rise, then Obama is in trouble. It's a long time until election--lots of things will change between now and then.

The general consensus seems to be that we're headed for many years of Republican governance across the board. Why? We can't continue what we have. We're broke.

I've been posting in forums like this one probably since before you knew what a computer was. I go back to Fido and Usenet, before widely available TCP/IP. I was on the mainframe for over a decade. If I gave you my old Usenet/Bitnet ID to search in Google, you could read for hours. It's all there. Some of that stuff is VERY entertaining. If you think I'm wild here, you ain't seen nothing yet! What you think are "lies and propaganda" are generally accepted as truth where my wife and I come from. There are more of us than there are of you...and WE KNOW IT. I don't care what you think. I don't have to. The more you squeal like a fucking pig, the harder I will beat you. I am not here to make you comfortable. What I've been telling you all along is how it is. The coalition McGovern tried to assemble in 1972 and the one Obama assembled in 2008 are the same group of people. Paul Begala called them the "African Americans and eggheads" coalition. Nixon's sharpshooters took you out in 1972 but you won with Obama in 2008 because he was the compliant errand boy for the insurance companies, auto companies and banks. Those issues have all been dealt with, he is no longer needed and the polls are reflecting that people in most states are wanting a strong leader again...and probably a change in our monetary policy. Those are all coming. We should have had Hillary in 2008. The Democratic party fathers know it. Dick Cheney admitted it publicly...but no, you had to have your smooth talking three card monte guy, your street hustling rock thrower from Chicago. It cost you 63 seats in the House of Representatives, it cost the Kennedys their family's Senate seat and now it's gonna cost your party the Senate, executive branch and probably control of our national agenda for 15-20 years. That's why Paul Ryan is having all those bipartisan meetings in the House right now. This is over, he knows it and he and his people are laying the groundwork for the big takeover. Now, is there anything else stupid you want to say?

He won't want to face a Republican Congress, as weak as he is. Yes, he has the media in his corner but if Congress is completely Republican (and the Court throws out Obamacare) that's not gonna buy him much. Did you know that Steve Burke, president of NBC Universal, has already announced a reorg of their news division that doesn't include Phil Griffin? He's President of MSNBC...for now. Maybe there won't be one. Don't you see what's happening? Can you imagine what hearings in the House would be like? Can you imagine dragging those czars before the cameras? Why hasn't it happened already? Because, that's not how things work. Someone's already made a deal. You can feel it. Obama is finished and he's made a hell of a mess. Next, we have to clean it up.

I go back to Fido and Usenet, before widely available TCP/IP. La dee fricken da. I was on Usenet too, sci.med, sci.chem, just like tens of thousands of others. What does that have to do with the fact that you got caught spreading lies and propaganda? What I want to know is if you are simply ignorant, or intellectually dishonest. rootvg says What you think are "lies and propaganda" are generally accepted as truth where my wife and I come from. More bullshit. Lies are lies, so quit making excuses. Where you and your wife are from has nothing to do with the fact that you post lies and propaganda here. I'll make a deal with you: If you stop posting obvious bullshit and propaganda, I'll stop pointing out the bullshit and propaganda.

Based on your posts here, you seem to have an almost pathological need to be viewed as an expert or authority. The crap you post here is beyond ridiculous, complete with conspiracy theories and cloak-and-dagger bullshit. You don't actually think anyone takes you seriously, do you?

The united states is going to remain the same purple country that it has been for the better part of the last 50 years. As in the last several elections, http://electoral-vote.com/ is the place to watch for real, informed, and remarkably good predictions. The idea that the house doesn't flip very often is simply wrong: http://artandhistory.house.gov/house_history/partyDiv.aspx Holding the house for more than 3 elections is something that is a relatively recent phenomenon, and it's an era that has clearly ended; the house has flipped two times in the last four elections. The senate is looking like a complete toss up at this point. We have around 45 safe seats for either side. Lets also remember that you don't need a majority to set the agenda in this country. If that was the case, Obama wouldn't have had to bend over backwards for everything he tried to do during his first two years in office. My prediction: - Obama wins re election - The house remains republican - The senate remains democratic When all is said and done, congressional republicans will still be their obstructionist selves.
