The Republicans desperately need Obama to fail and its not looking so good right now.

Hey, if George Bush can get reelected, Obama certainly can. I hope the economy is straighted out by then. I know the defecit won't be, which means at some point, we're going to have to see massive tax increases, or huge cuts in spending. My money is on the former, with dems in complete control right now. That will be where Obama will have trouble IMO. Bush Sr was crushed when he raised taxes, since Americans hate that word. Only time will tell. Personally, I prefer split control of gubmit. So maybe we'll see a Slick Willy situation, where the gubmit's power gets put in check a little, and Obama gets a second term. Only time will tell.

"The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of doubt, what is laid before him."
Leo Tolstoy, 1897
