    Really...Obama the war monger has proven to be completely inept and totally in-over-his head. His polls are horrible and getting worse:

    Gallup:Obama approval among Hispanics hits new low

    So, why not run Hillary? We all know she has more balls then Obama. :twisted: Hey, even Dick Cheney thinks she should enter the primaries.

    OR Al Gore, who is pissed at Obama for backing down on the EPA smog standards...the Goracle is deeply pained that his pet issue has been given short shrift by the White House and nothing would do more to push climate change back on the national radar than a surprise presidential run by a former VP turned Democratic nominee/Internet inventor turned Nobel winner.

    Put down your fork & RUN, Al, run! :-D

    I often take advice on how to improve the center-left party's chances by listening to right-wingers. What possible reason could they have for undermining it?

    Progressives should primary him for breaking all of their stated principles against war, civil liberties, centralized presidential power, and special privileges to favored corporations.

    To not even think about only proves them to be hypocritical party hacks.

    Naaa,,you got it wrong. If there has to be a Dem at the Helm I would much rather see Clinton and her experience, Obama just dont have it for the position,,just like many Dems would rather we pick Romni than Perry...
    Obama is just not a problem solver, and is a very weak Leader...

    flounder; Depending on what you think Obama wanted to do if elected, I'd suggest Obama did "have it for the position", it's just most people didn't listen to what those intentions were. Reparations (80,000 Black Farmers getting large chunks of cash, while only 17,000 actually were farmers), Obamacare or a VERY large and controlling central government, Federal Control over States, with the use of the Department of Justice, just a few examples. Either Romney or Perry will beat Obama or three others and most Republicans/Independents/Moderates would vote for any of them. I'm one that doesn't think Romney can win the primaries and there is a difference.


    Otter; Don't you know it was all Bush's fault.....The fact I like is, it took Bush 8 Years to run up the deficit (inexcusable) 4T$, then candidate Obama used to campaign, but has added another 4T$, in two years.

    Lets face it, the only jobs reducing Smog standards will create are opportunities in the medical industry. More smog, more patients, and more kids with health problems that will be long term consumers of the medical industry. That is an improvement for the medical industry. But you are right, Obama needs to get a set of balls from Ellen Degenerate, and take back the government from corporation conservatives. What has he got to lose? the presidency?, he is going to lose it if he does not man up and quit kissing butt to republicans and t-baggers who are going to hate him no matter what.

    I am dissapointed in Obama, I thought he was a liberal, but he has been sucking up to conservatives for the past 3 years. In fact, I think he does not plan to run for re-election. That is why he is using conservative stimulis plan to screw the economy even more. Because that is when people are going to realize that the stimulis money is gone, and the State governments will be picking up the tab for highway/transportaion projects, and paying for a larger Schools system. They will all be farther in debt with less tax revenue to pay for it.

    Hell the only ones who benifit are the banks and investment corporations. Just like the last stimulis plan. And we all know how that is working out.

    Vote them all out. Those politician are stuck in 1920s economic ideology, and use 17th century speaches to fix a 21st centry problem. Is Obama too stupid to see that his advisors are manipulating him?

    Wake up USA, other countries around the world have passed us up on education, trade, manufacturing, and even consumerism. For the USA to create jobs it needs to expand globally.

    David kucinich would be an awesome candidate, of course he more an independent than a dem. Still it would offer a real choice instead of the crap A , Crap B from the current two party cluster(*)(*)(*)(*)

    Hell, I said the same thing about Dubya towards the end of his first term. He did manage to win his second term (just as Obama may very well do), but he wrecked his party in the process.

    Not that that was a bad thing; the Republicans *needed* their asses kicked in order to get them to straighten up their act. Maybe it's time for the Dems to get back to their roots as well.

    And transparency. And corruption. And partisan divisiveness. And on and on and on...

    If Obama truly believed all that smack he was saying during the election, would he endorse the current administration? Of course not. No self-respecting progressive could.

    agreed somewhat in that one of things that stand out is the use of military contractors who still profit from war but the President has a sense of trust with the left and center that Bush never did with the right and center in that he had to continue some of the last administrations policies because they were so ingrained in the fabric of american structure...

    for instance in defense of wiretaps (patriot act), guantanamo, military contractors, bailing out the rich is that there was no other feasible way for the president to efficiently get rid of these programs without endangering his support from the center and still remain a viable candidate for re-election.

    That would be an even bigger disaster because there is no way a Democratic primary challenger against OBama would be able to win the general. We might as well hand the election over to the Republicans, and that's absolutely unacceptable.

    People need to look at the poll numbers. As much as people may dislike Obama, they hate the congress even more. There's a good chance the Dems might retake the house in 2012.
