When Obama was elected I stated, many times, that it would be hard to beat him in 2012 because the economy almost certainly had to get better than it was in November of 2008. How very wrong I was.
I had the same feeling you did.
Figured the “normal” cycle of economic activity would bail him out.
But their policies were SO BAD that they have overcome the “normal” cycle.
Only because his administration has been so effective in a very negative sense.
You are not wrong. Well, maybe your reason was wrong. 0bama will be tough to beat considering all of the dirty things the Dems can and will do to steal the election. They'll not go down easily.
