There's been a belief for some time that the Rs intentionally lost the election in 2008 by putting up two idiots with the intent of coming back in starting in 2010 and then in 2012. Its seems their strategy is playing out perfectly.


Don't think that strategy will work. Look at Arizona with that goofy lady trying to unseat Harry Reid.

Obama is not perfect (I completely disagree with his surge policy in Afghanistan), but he is a smart person. Unfortunately he is surrounded by incompetent advisors who are clinging to the old boys network, like Summers and Geithner and who in the world is James Jones?

Obama's childhood movie will be shown in the US come this September. It is playing in Indonesia. That movie shows the multi cultures that shaped up Obama when he was growing up. He is one of the nice and decent man, hence, it is not in his nature to fire incompetent help. He was firm with McChrystal, but that is a different story.

2010 and 2012? Who will run against Obama in 2012? Newt? H Barbour? Sarah Palin? Bobby Jindal? All of them are light weight, especially against Obama/Clinton.
