re: #197 Erik The Red

I think he needs to find some traction and just keep the seat warm until 2012.

I disagree with you on this simply because ANY traction he gets will be exploited to get him reelected. He needs to utterly fail and let the rest of us free market capitalists sift through the carnage and move forward. While he can do an immense amount of damage, when the pendulum swings back to the right, I firmly believe that much of the damage enacted into law will be repealed. 20 years from now, we all need to look back on the Obama years and with absolute certainty declare him the WORST president; worse then Jimmy Carter.
