WIll Obama run for office in 2012? A Freeper discussion

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Obama will not be the Dem candidate in the general election in 2012. They will find a face-saving way out for him, but he will be out. No donors will squander funds on a long-shot re-election bid, and the other Dems “down the ticket” from him don’t want to be sacrificed as their comrades were in 2009 & 2010.

Unfortunately that's wishful thinking. The left is one with the Marxist. There is NO way he will NOT be on the ticket. They need him to complete the transformation of the US into a third world Socialist Hell.

Above all the MSM and the left (I know, one and the same) want the U.S. destroyed.

The evil MSM is equal to the Marxist as a mortal danger to our Republic. Obama would not exist without the MSM.

I agree that there are many who would love to see him on the throne forever, and would go to great lengths to achieve it; there are simply not nearly enough of them.

What states can he carry? Where are people any better off, or even as well off, as when this idiot won election? At the present rate, there will not be a single state that isn’t in play for the GOP, while the Dems would have to write off whole regions (and the Senate & House races in them).

Nobody in his “coalition”, with the exception maybe of public schoolteachers, is any better off: government workers/emergency responders are being laid off in droves, pacifists have to come to terms with his surge in Afghanistan and the fact that Gitmo will never close, homosexual deviants still have no “marriage” in the eyes of the federal government, young people are among the hardest-hit by the bad job market (especially recent grads), retirees have seen their MediCare cut into by ObamaCare, and ethnic minorities are still at the bottom of the ladder while racial tension has certainly not disappeared. Where would any enthusiasm come from?

People need jobs, and some sense of security/continuity; Obama clearly has nothing to offer on either front, preferring to talk in vague generalities about nonsense.

likely from tens of billions of the unspent stimulus money stolen from the taxpayers. That can buy a lot of votes. His staff is scheming 24/7 on how to "steal" the 2012 election. They can't win without fraud.

In a fair election, any competent conservative would easily crush Obama. Viewing his chances through the prism of normal election parameters he would have zero chance of winning. However, we will have to battle the fraud, the slavish MSM, and the contemptible RINOs who will battle us all the way to the end. The MSM will be in ultra smear mode to help the Marxist chances. They will mount a coordinated, slimy media attack of the likes we never have seen before in our history.

I agree with what they would like to do/like to project; NOBODY believes that anything is any better regardless of what the TV says.

They would have to get so many people back to work (at some comparable salary to what they were earning 3-5 years ago - which NOBODY I know who has lost a job and taken another is currently earning), and convince them there is some permanence to it; this would have been difficult given 4 years, and they’re down to 1 1/2. Who doesn’t know somebody unemployed for over a year?

Who doesn’t know somebody who has lost a home? Who isn’t afraid of losing their own home and/or job? Anybody who promises a semblance of what we used to have will destroy him (either in a Dem primary or the general election); he is “the Devil we know”, and he has proven he can’t provide that. He has generated his opponents’ ads for them, with comments about what temperature we should keep our homes at and how we should sacrifice; his own lack of tact is his undoing.

You are 1000% correct in everything you said. Unfortunately , there is the racial aspect of this regime. The MSM will deal the race card from the bottom of the deck against anyone who dares criticize "'The Won' we have been waiting for".

When $oros picked this empty suit to carry out his agenda he knew the American media and political climate well. Someone like Howard Dean or John Kerry is equally as repugnant, but by this point given the same circumstances, neither of those two would get away with it and still have the MSM carrying water for them. The first affirmative action president WILL NOT be criticized or even questioned in any meaningful way. Not by the MSM, (even Fox really) not by the Dems and not by the GOP.

The first affirmative action token still has to face the secret ballot, and there is no way around that. I don’t see a resurgence of “O” stickers next year; he humiliated anyone who vocally supported him.

Ever since the Cambridge incident, where he took the enlightened view of law enforcement that is held by rappers, he knows he lost any “white guilt” support. To see black cops stand by the arresting officer, even to the point of stating that they wouldn’t vote for Obama “again”, was enough to convince the dumbest white liberal that this foreigner has an intense, irrational hatred of white people, including them.

AFret.

He still has an ace up his sleeve....the “illegal” vote.

He will push for immigration reform...soon.

When it fails to pass the congress...an executive order granting amnesty will be introduced...he probably already has it drafted.

Millions of instant votes..this isn't rocket surgery.
