Basically, the GOP field comes down to Romney or Perry. Neither one seems like a credible threat to unseating Obama
As unpopular as Obama may be, all politicians are unpopular right now and rightfully so. The GOP is less popular than Obama right now. The Tea Party popularity is in the low 20s. As GOP candidates pander to the tea Baggers they will saddle themselves with an unsinkable platform
You need to keep in mind one thing - Hillary.
That'll be bye-bye Barry if she steps into it, and hell - at this point, I'd even vote for her.
Hillary is a political pragmatist. Why would she enter a futile campaign against the president?
Other than Republicans who still can't wait to run against Hillary, not many Dems would support her
Add in..she's been a wildly successful senator, a extremely successful Secretary of State and has shown she has both the gravitas and political chops to handle the presidency.
She's still relatively young..and a run in 2016 would be her best shot for becoming President no matter who wins in 2012.
