This is a horrible story as other people have listed out.

Obama should be worried about the economic numbers. They're not going in the right direction. For all the partisan garbage on this forum, a lot of people are going to vote on their faith in the economy and not on abstract party platforms.

Clearly that would be pointless as you will simply say "no it's not" and continue your baseless rants as usual.
Exactly. I'm pretty sure the only thing "a777pilot" has piloted is the U.S.S. Troll ... which mostly appears to be of the Failboat class.

I could see O'Bammah being reelected if some loser like McCain runs for president. Look at how the Media spent all of its time trying to brainwash America. I think Hillary would have been nominated if the Media had not been in love with O'Bammah. I think Hillary should have run as an independent. I think she could have won.

It is hard to get reelected when all of the out of work people are going to vote against you. They are all going to say "Where is my job?" I find it hard to believe anyone in office cares about the working man.

Yeah his saving grace are all the Clowns running for the Republican Nomination.

And GOP Congress. If they do nothing about jobs for 2 years, except hamper the recovery by imposing austerity, a GOP president is going to be a hard sell.

That's true. That is exactly what I would do.

There are no credible or unbiased sites having to do with News and/or politics. Not even one.

Interest comment from someone who has used links to media reports many times to lend credibility to his statements. Or are you saying you're just not credible for doing so?

The biggest problem is that the only alternative is the GOP. Good things would happen if America could be convinced to vote third party.

I'm crediable, but none of the sites on News and/or politics are, to include the ones I post. Sad isn't it? You would think there was at least one.

I have no comment on the site linked.

But I've seen some bad polls for Obama recently. They weren't about his 'likability', which seems to be consistantly pretty favorable. But polls on the economy and the direction the country is heading are dismal.

And then we saw a 10K troop reduction in spite of the military's resitence. If I understand correctly, the timing is also questionable because we're in the beginning of the 'fighting season'. Looks totally political.

Then there's the 30 million barrels of oil. WTH? That's two days of our consumption, and given it's a global market we share that temporary reduction with every other country on earth. Weak sauce and inexplicable other than short-term political gain..

These two moves reek of political fear.

At what point will the Obama cheerleaders/apologists finally have enough? I can't remember when the Bush cheersquad finally broke. I wonder how many people are wishing they would have got Hillary instead of Obama or how many regret Obama but would never admit it.

My only comment is that if America cannot unite, all we are doing is rearranging the deck Chair on the HMS Titanic.

As the analogous American passenger on the Titanic, its profoundly depressing to watch the Demonrats and the Republirats arguing whose fault it is, when the ship of State is going down, and neither of them can work together to at least organize a way to bail us out.

As for me, I am going to make damn sure the rich don't have a higher priority than me when it comes time to board the lifeboats.

Even though the article may be nonsense because I've never heard of the source it's obvious that if the economy is similar next year to how it is now (and I think it will be), the Republicans will win unless they literally put forth somebody mentally retarded (or Palin).
