Obama has now become the official Democrat POTUS candidate...”

He may be the power behind the throne but the Dems will still need to run someone, if for nothing more than a figurehead. And therein lies the rub. Who has both the ability to go through a grueling Presidential campaign and the bona fides to convince people to vote for him or her, and upon winning the Presidency to willingly turn over power to Obama? That’s gotta be a real short list...>>> do you actually think that these democrats think. They and their dead will vote for a dead person. They will vote for a poster cutout standing at a podium. like a monty python puppet with mouth part moving and arms waving.

I agree with you that the faithful will do as they’re told. For years the phrase “yellow-dog Democrat” was rule of law in my state. But to win the election both sides have to court that 20% bloc of swing voters that determine the winner, and I don’t believe you’ll be able to do that with a poster cutout. It’ll take a real person, someone with the drive and ego necessary to actually become President to carry off this charade. And I don’t think that’s the sort of person that would give it all up and in effect play golf for 4 years...
