Author: I read an article by Tony Blankley in ‘The Washington Times’ today wherein the author snuck in the phrase, “content to leave the White House eight years from now”.
It’s interesting that Tony Blankley imagines Obama serving two terms when he has almost zero chance of doing so unless laws are changed to make it more difficult for the Republicans to win.
I am not suggesting that Obama has so little chance because of what he will or will not do but because the odds are so severely stacked against him.
Everything that I have read suggests that the economy will continue to worsen, that more jobs will be lost and that many more foreclosures will occur and no one is suggesting that something positive will be felt for at least two years.
So in two years we can expect democrats to have their numbers severely slashed and in four years we can anticipate them being punished in a general election.
Add to the above; Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, Israel and other trouble spots; the price of oil which is bound to increase and other calamities that are just waiting for a time and place to happen and it’s almost impossible to envision Obama serving a second term.
