Yeah, right. Lessee.
We (the GOP) have the former Governor of the Bluest State in the Union, who has more baggage than a full jumbo jet headed overseas, and is a member of a weird religion (no, I’m not an anti-Mormon bigot - face the facts, by most standards, Mormonism IS weird).
Obama has the MSM pulling for him, along with ACORN and the Unions and most major urban area governments, all of whom are prepared to commit massive vote fraud in his favor. He has enormous sums of money (so what if his fund raising falling off a bit - he still has tons of money) and didn’t have to spend any of it a primary. He has the support of the parasite classes and the illegal aliens. He has a sizable minority that will vote for him, no matter what.
The only thing holding him back is his record or lack thereof. His major accomplishment, ObamaCare, is incredibly unpopular with the general populace, and may, possibly, be nullified by the SCOTUS. Of course, Romney has the same issue with RomneyCare, in the People’s Democratic Republic of Massachusetts.
Add to that, the fact that the ‘Pubbies are too gutless to hit Obama hard where it counts, and you can see a crippled GOP campaign.
Folks, get real. It ain’t lookin’ good. Unpopular or not, Obama has a lot of edges and will be hard to beat.
And even if Romney wins, we’re probably not going to like him much.
In my book he is a loser (about the nicest thing I could say about him) and he has a list of accomplishments - all, 100% bad. I cannot think of any President, going all the way back to Nixon, that has such a completely negative track record. Consider:
I'm sure I could go google "obama failures" and come up with a list of hundreds. These are just the ones off the top of my head (BC - before coffee). You all get the idea. hussein is the most accomplished (negatively) President ever. If he wasn't a textbook narcissist he wouldn't even try for re-election. Has to be counting on trying to steal/manipulate his way back into office.
I agree, What the Looter class does not understand is that a cow has to be bred once in a while or they go dry.
Our cow is starting to go dry.
It is time to ease off on the milking and start thinking of getting her bred or there will be no milk for anyone, and she will end up as a McDonalds hamburger.
I don’t think the GOP intends to take the white house this time. We need to get rid of the GOP leadership as badly as we need to get rid of Obama.
I’d happily make a deal to vote for Romney in return for the resignations of McCain, Graham, Boehner and about a dozen others.
Obama will win, and by a landslide. We are living in a country whose people are no longer guided by wisdom, and who, in fact, disdain it. The population has been intentionally dumbed-down, as evidenced by the fact that it elected Obama to office. There is no opposition to his rule; if there were, there would be legitimate candidates being offered up from the Republican “side”, which I am beginning to doubt exists any longer.
BTW, I haven’t taken my shoes and socks off to check the math, so if any of my FRiends can prove me wrong, I would be DELIGHTED that you did so.
You are using selective math.
Be choosing the subset that you picked, the numbers are correct, but the choice skews the results.
Did you know that zero percent of black pResidents have ever been re-elected?
” - - - the numbers are correct, - - - “
Whew! Thanks! I was going to take my shoes and socks off right after my second cup of coffee, but you have saved me the trouble! Thanks!!!!!

My point was that there are a lot of factors in calculating predictability from such a small set of numbers, and I chose one subset to show that it is probable BY THE NUMBERS that The Obamanator will be baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!

BTW, send some rain our way, as Texas is still in a drought!
If he were a white man, there is ZERO chance he would win a second term, but Obama has racism in his deck of cards.
If he were a white man, there is ZERO chance he would have won 1 term, but Obama has racism in his deck of cards.
I'd love to.
In W PA it is now raining like a Texas longhorn pissing on a flat rock.
We have had so much rain this winter, that even my multiple french drains are passed helping.
Algore is correct, weather changes and obama is also correct, we all are hoping for change.
Hey brother, can you spare a dime?
All of these items and many more were lies. Obama's ruled against the will of the American People, against the Constitution and against the law. The public is innocent of all of this.
Who's fickle again?

Bad enough Medved is a RINO, but tripe like this is worthless.
I can sum up his entire atricle in 5 words: Presidents usaully don’t win re-election.
So, why did Reagan and Clinton and Baby Bush get re-elected. The economy.
Why did Carter and Daddy Bush get unelected. The economy.
It’s the economy, stupid. That is why this idiot article from RINO Medved, and his “this could go either way but odds are against re-election” is worthless.
This is Carter II. We don’t have the massive inflation, but unemployment is worse as is real GDP growth. Everything they are calling GDP growth is the FED buying it’s own debt and wartime deficit spending. There is no genuine GDP growth. GDP should be shrinking.
No, Obama has no chance against this Carter II economy. A RINO like Medved isn’t capable of seeing that.
Obama will win, and by a landslide. We are living in a country whose people are no longer guided by wisdom, and who, in fact, disdain it. The population has been intentionally dumbed-down, as evidenced by the fact that it elected Obama to office. There is no opposition to his rule; if there were, there would be legitimate candidates being offered up from the Republican “side”, which I am beginning to doubt exists any longer.
“Didn’t ZerO effectively blurt this to Medvedev the other day?”
He sure sounded awfully confident that he was going to win.
(One wonders what will happen to this big ball of wax.)
BTW I don't listen to Medved, but just because you call him a RINO, doesn't make him one.
Yes, I scanned the entire article. Scanned as in, quickly read the entire article. In your points, you even left out the point he made that the trend of 2 termers was much stronger early in US history and not so strong now.
My response was not that he was wrong, but that he was right for the wrong reason - hence the worthlessness of this article.
I fully explained my position that the recent 2 termers from Reagan to Clinton, got credit for strong economies, while the recent one termers got blame for weak economies.
We are in a weak economy. That is all you need to know. Medved acts like the 2nd term presidential election is just some random coin flip with the incumbent losing more than 50% of the time. If I didn’t know better, the article reads like it is giving cover to Obama for losing re-election. I realize that is not the jist of the article.
But the article treats this election like a coin flip, when it is not. Obama will lose because the economy stinks. That is the point I made in my response, against Medved’s coin flip.
Hence my conclusion the article is worthless. It doesn’t take into account the economies and circumstances of those who won and lost re-election.
Calling him a RINO was just a thtow-away comment. You are right that saying it doesn’t make it true. Looks like I’m far from the only one who knows this.
