Things are going according to plan. Unfortunately, it is not our plan. Obama will continue to shift leftward; the media who previously fawned on him will begin to bloviate on how damaging his actions are to his own re-election bid. Obama will throw the election to Romney if at all possible. Romney will damage the Republican brand. We will lose our gains in Congress thanks to this damage. And Romney will hand the White House back to the liberals in 2016 or 2020 with a democrat controlled Congress, a Supreme Court laden with another liberal (or two), a Tea Party with the wind taken out of its sails, and the Republican banner badly torn.

Win this battle, and the war effort gets set back a decade.

But lose it and the Republic is sunk for good.

Lol, it is always good to be paranoid wrt politics.

Obama has NO intention of throwing the election to Romney.

He really is this incompetent. He really is not particularly smart. He really has NO idea of how to help an economy create jobs. We don’t know that he ever took an economics course anywhere.

With a sufficient Republican majority in Congress Romney is not likely to get out of control. It is an open question as to whether he knows what to do or if Congress will. BUT just removing the Disaster and the Job Killing Health Care Reform will cause an immediate up turn in the economy.

I don’t think the Unions will ever regain their power to boost the RATs to victory. So their prospects are bleak at best.

If you truly believe this, and I take you at your word, then you _must_ do what you can to get Obama elected. Can I then assume that you are endorsing Obama, for the eventual greater good? You plan on voting for him, right?

Lose this battle and we won't make it to the next decade.
