Looks like the shrub managed to kick the can down the road here, or at least he tried. What a disastrous eight years this has been. And yet something like 30 percent of the country still approves of the work he did. Personally, I have a hard time accepting his right to co-habit this planet.
Folk I talk to are concerned that Barry will end up another Carter. It think this is entirely possible. However, the demographics of the country have altered; the GOP southern strategy won't carry the day for them. They'll need something radically new.
But I think there's just too bright a big red line to be drawn between the GOP's lunatic fiscal policies and the current problems. Nobody is going to blame this on Obama. And if- however haltingly- the nation has begun to come out of the deep doldrums it's diving ever more deeply into now, he'll cruise to re-election.
But the work has only begun. Democrats are hardly perfect; but the GOP is scum, pure and simple. The GOP needs to torn out by the roots and the furrows salted.
