Agreed.
Though I would add that it would be nice for he and Pelosi, et. al., to solidly take the economy down a notch or two below where we currently are and to prolong the misery long enough to move that depression era yellow dog stance solidly into a blue dog stance. I would also hope that RINO's would go along with him so they can be seen for the "Dem Lites" they really are and move their sorry behinds over to the left side of the room. Failing or supplanting that, an initiative to subsidize a move of liberals to Europe or other environs is also desireable; I would not mind a tax increase dedicated to moving libs to where they are appreciated.
If that (the economy) does happen it will be spun so that BHO inherited Bushs' mess and "did all he could and without his leadership it would have been much worse".
Then if a R comes in and gets it right it will be because BHO already had it fixed it just needed time to take effect.
If in 2 years, the Rs take over congress and it gets fixed it will be BHOs 'bipartisan' sucess.
Sorry, there is no way we win.
