re: #135 prononymous

I’m going to take the optimistic view of all this wacko BS: Things are looking on track for an Obama 2nd term. All the raging, frothy craziness might look good to the base but it will look bad with the general public - and don’t think liberals aren’t paying close attention so they can dredge all this shit back up for maximum effect.

Thing is, even if Obama wins a second term, I’m not sure I like what recent history indicates would likely follow. Other than Reagan/Bush Sr., we haven’t had more than 8 years of a party holding the Presidency since FDR and Truman, although Nixon and Gore were pretty close. I mean, I know that doesn’t mean things will follow that pattern, but it does seem to suggest a history of having people wanting something different and parties lacking a good followup.
