President Barack Obama says change takes more than one term in the White House, more than one president and more than one party.

His message to thousands of cheering supporters at a rally in Milwaukee was a rebuke to rival Mitt Romney, who claims Obama's policies have failed to turn the economy around.

Odd Ronald Reagan inherited a worse mess and he fixed in in 1 term.

[funfan]

Then why did he say if he couldn't fix it he would be a one term president? I am so sick of this bag of wind he has got to go. Please everyone GO VOTE Romney/Ryan and get rid of this flim flam man.

[VeniVidiVici]

Still waiting for Romney to run an ad showing Hussein Obama saying he’d quit after one term if he was shown to be an idiot.

[SampleMan]

Perhaps it does take more than 3 years to undo 70 years of crap, but Obama has proven that it only takes 18 months to send the economy into a death spiral.

[tobyhill]

I'm sick of the scuzzy looking clowns lined up behind Obama with their cavity infested mouth hanging open.

Obamaspeak: “fix” - screw up beyond all hope

“If I don’t have this thing turned around in 3 years, it’s a one term proposition.” - Barack Hussein Obama, 2009.

You never see this quote in the media reports. If it were a GOP prez, it’d be hung around his neck like “Mission Accomplished” was to Bush.

[autumnraine]

When he mutters this crap, be ready with the quote of HIS.

“That’s exactly right. And you know, a year from now I think people are going to see that we’re starting to make some progress. But there’s still going to be some pain out there. If I don’t have this done in three years, then there’s going to be a one-term proposition.”

[Bob]

If his policies had any chance to actually fix the economy at all, we would have seen some signs of improvement over the past 3 1/2 years. We haven't.

[Sola Veritas]

“Barack Obama says change takes more than one term in the White House....”

True sir, but it only took you “one” term to make the economy much worse, and nothing you have done has turned things around.

[Tuanedge]

Translation: “It’s going to take me more than one term to destroy this country.”

[newzjunkey]

This man advocates "PERSISTENT EXPERIMENTATION" on the economy so HOW WOULD HE KNOW?

Maybe it'll take THREE TERMS.

OR FOUR, like FDR.

He hasn't a CLUE.

[bigheadfred]

He is right. After the damage he has done, it is going to take Romney and Ryan two terms just to get the damned bus back on the road.

[musicman]

"Then why did he say if he couldn't fix it
he would be a one term president?"

[meyer]

Well, it only took 2 years to really screw it up. While pretending to “fix” it, I might add!

[AU72]

It takes more than a village to boot out an idiot.

[Sarah Barracuda]

What Obama is saying is that it takes more than one term to turn the United States of America into the Socialist Utopia he has always dreamed of

[chuckee]

It only took Obama 4 years to add 6 trillion in debt, more debt than had accumulated for the first 200 years of the Republic.Next to that feat fixing the economy in 4 years should have been easy.
