How bad would the US economy have to be in November of 2012 (unemployment, inflation, income inequality) before either of you would could consider voting AGAINST every Republican AND Democrat on your ballots?Yes he can, and if Republicans are not smart he is going to. He has the establishment and liberal Press on his side, and the man runs a hell of a campaign. Anyone counting him out right now is a fool. In fact I would wager if the race was ran now. He would win.
it's not that anyone is "fooled" by any politician. it's that the repubs haven't given a viable alternative. and after this past week, i'm pretty sure that no repub is going to be trustworthy for a very long time... not until the party marginalizes its nutters.
You may be right, but I see no reason to trust Obama either. He has not delivered on his grand promises, He has shown very weak leadership, and is spending like a drunken Sailor. He has also quite frankly lied to us all many times now.
Not sure why you still think he is such a great guy for the job. If the choices are him or any of the Repubs talking about running now. Well that's a shitty choice, but IMO Obama is out of his depth in the job, and not really seeming to grow into it either.
You are however dead wrong about the nobody being fooled part. The American people voted for a Moderate Liberal centrist in Obama. They Thought he could handle the job. On both Points Obama fooled anyone who voted for him.
