Obama To Win Landslide Re-Election in 2012 (A liberal fool's prediction-note the date of article)

It’s April 20, 2010, and let me call it now – President Barack Obama will easily win re-election in 2012. Any discussion you hear about the 2012 presidential election is just a way to wile away the hours between the next Lindsay Lohan and/or Kim Kardashian news.

There’s three indisputable reasons to call this race so early:

1) The economy will be better in 2011 than it is now.

It’s almost impossible not to improve the economy after eight years of George W. Bush’s mad and often confusing slay-the-beast onslaught. It was as if the kids from “Jersey Shore” were running the place. It was a situation.

Basically, if unemployment numbers are less than 9%, or Joe Biden doesn’t accidentally lose all our money, it’s a non-issue.

2) Obama’s re-election campaign will be a shock & awe effort of the likes the political world has ever seen:

Imagine combining the Super Bowl and Carnival, then firing off repeated gold-plated orgasm flairs. That’s going to be every day for 18 months of the Obama campaign. They may do the whole thing in 3-D and have Kathryn Bigelow direct. And that was their first one. The first one will look like a Jr. High pep rally compared to the bombardment of sense and emotions about to be released on the U.S.

3) All the GOP has to run against him are Republicans:

While ranked third, this really is the icing on the cake. The Republicans have not one person who could beat Barack Obama. Not one. The closest thing to a winnable candidate they have is Meghan McCain. Trust me, poll it. Unfortunately, she’s like 19 or something, so she’s out.

As for Sarah Palin, she’ll sooner co-star in a “Very Special Episode of Alf,” (where she’ll frag Alf from a helicopter) before she’ll be considered a serious Presidential candidate by “Real America.”

Newt Gingrich? Bring it. Just bring it.

Mitt Romney? Mitt Romney wouldn’t vote for Mitt Romney.

Scott Brown would be the most attractive candidate, but Tea Partiers will never forgive him for occasionally voting like a human, and he seems far more astute than to commit political suicide at the start of a promising career.

Even Mike Huckabee has to be sick of Mike Huckabee.

Seriously, they have nobody. And the “Policy of Hell No” won’t exactly be winning fans after some voters have already benefited from the health care reform law.

I suppose it is possible a surprise candidate will stun us all and present a real challenge to Obama. Except that I just wrote that to cover my bases; and trust me, there’s no one. The GOP would be best off giving Bob Dole or Walter Mondale their nomination. At least we know they can handle it.

So let me call it now and beat the rush: Obama wins the 2012 presidential election by a landslide over a horrifyingly inept Republican candidate. I guarantee it.

And I guarantee this, as well: The mainstream political talkers will spend a great deal of time discussing how the “Tea Party” somehow made a difference.

PS: Just to come off as slightly topical, let me add my prediction for the 2010 Congress races. About 93 percent of incumbents will keep their jobs.

In Novembers of 2012, after the votes are tallied, we will see that it will be a very close race. Not because Zero will actually get the votes of the American people, but because, given the history of Democrat tactics, we can expect that somewhere between 15% - 20% of the vote count will be fraudulent.

The GOP candidate will have to really amass a true landslide to overcome this fraud.

I'm afraid that if the obvious fraud is declared a winner there will be many people saying, “lock and load.”

Alan Colmes is a consummate idiot and broken glass FUBO synchopant. Colmes makes Bob Beckel look somewhat rational ... pretty hard to do

*******

Colmes made another, less known, prediction back in 2010: "In 2012, a lot of Americans will be begging me to return to Fox tv to re-join Hannity so that we can resurrect our once highly popular Hannity-Colmes show." Yeah right.

And Colmes has a face for radio.

“If Alan Colmes predicted it would be hot and dry out tomorrow in Death Valley, I would put out pots to collect the profuse rainfall that would be almost inevitable.”

LOL.

Forget that. At that point, you had better learn how to build an ark and do it darn quickly.

Basically, if unemployment numbers are less than 9%...it’s a non-issue.

Oops.
