"Also what's going on in Ohio and Wisconsin may not benefit Republicans in that 2012 election---may cost them actually."

from what I'm hearing from people it will help the republicans, people are sick and tired of Unions demanding things from tax payers who are over burdened with taxes

I think 2013-2016 will be a bad time for the country. There are serious problems that are not being addressed and are getting larger. I think whoever wins in 2012 will have a horrible situation to deal with and I lack confidence in Obama's ability to handle a serious debt related crisis.

Another thought, second terms are almost always bad. Think about our two term presidents - the second term is almost always a very tough time for the incumbent and by year six the public has fatigue for almost any incumbent.

If the cost of fuel at the pump is still high, he loses. If inflation rears its ugly head........as I think it will.......he loses. If a candidate comes forward with concise and direct solutions to these problems and explains why democrats refuse to confront the entitlements and public employee costs that are bankrupting this nation, he loses. I don't see much of a win-win for him because I believe all of those things are going to happen.
