What the hell is the point of an obama second term?  Cenk was dead right.  What the hell is the damn point ?

I can't believe you have to ask this question

he needs to finish collapsing the nation

wasn't that the entire point of his presidency?

wasn't that the CT his father cooked up for him 40 years ago?

I think a significant percent of the left will not vote at all and that's going to be the same thing when it's over.  If Paul wins, he'll be a sure bet as 5 to 10 percent of the left WILL I guarantee bail on Obama for Paul.  Seriously, Obama has fucking pissed a lot of people off on the left....  If he doesn't make magic with this signing statement, this could be his political tombstone.

I think there is more of a chance of that happening on the right

look at how many front runners we've had already

the right can't stand any of their options

I'm not fucking kidding

you think the left is suddenly going to vote for RP or Mitt ?



It's a well-known fact that the left-wing base is an incredibly weak voting bloc. If it rains, they don't show up at the polls. Don't you think that a President who has gone way off track won't receive much enthusiasm, and therefore much votes, from the base?

I'm talking from the viewpoint of a liberal demo progressive like yourself.  Why vote for him again?

You clearly don't understand... 90% of "the right" wants to see Obama out of office and will do anything to achieve that. They're just having trouble picking a candidate right now. But once that process is done, Obama will be in big trouble.

I've never heard that well known fact before

I have heard the well known fact that the more people who turn out to vote the more likely Dems are to win which is why Repubs love voter suppression tactics

I see no need to speculate about any of this stuff until at least the point where we know who the Repub candidate will be (and if RP will run as an independent)

The left is strongest when someone is promising them free shit from other tax payers - then they come out like an army.

Dude, there is fucking zero chance of that happening on the right.  The single one thing they are fucking unified on is getting rid of Obama.  If fucking cow turd wins the primary, republicans are going to show up in full force to vote for the cow turd.

I would expect 100% of the right would want him out of office

If you're right I guess it will be a cake walk for Repubs

I dont care is Mumiia Abu Jamal / Madoff were the GOP ticket - you would have to chain me tp the wall and shoot me 10 times over to keep me from voting out that traitor.

The one thing that could trip up the Republicans on their way to defeating Obama would be a third party Ron Paul run.
