    thanks for clarifying that you want the economy to get better, even though that would guarantee obamas reelection, that was my question.

    if you doubt some people think otherwise, i suggest you up your meds

    I'm all for a turnaround- BUT I want it be very real and to last. Not just some 3-6 month mini recovery before back in the toilet.

    This statement already shows a strong bias. The dems are going to put forth a candidate that has presided over an absolutely terrible economy. If it doesn't get better before election time, it is still up to the GOP to sack up and produce somebody amazing? As things are, I don't think the GOP needs an amazing candidate to do better for this country than what we have.

    True, but the incumbent has the power of being... the incumbent. It's a big deal.

    There were seven candidates on the podium last night, and every single one would make a better president than our current one.

    If the unemployment rate stays as it is and the deficit isn't properly dealt with, the GOP can nominate a so-so candidate and I think they walk in.

    Watch the electoral college (state by state polls), but...

    http://www.rasmussenreports.com/pub...lot/election_2012_generic_presidential_ballot


    Election 2012: Generic Presidential Ballot
    Generic Republican Candidate 46%, Obama 44%

    Nearly one-in-three voters do not like the way the 2012 presidential race is shaping up for now in the two major political parties. Given a choice between the incumbent and one of the potential Republican presidential candidates, 30% think 2012 would be a good year to consider electing a third-party candidate.
