4. They will go after him with the same ferocity as they would against Hillary
These people believe that the White House is a God-given right of the Republican Party. They don't like people who stand in the way of that.

With Barack as the nominee, while he is constantly speechifying about love and unity and togetherness, the Republican Attack Machine will be ruthlessly savaging him. And that shit works in campaigns, whether you like to admit it or not We've already seen how slow an ineffective this rookie is at hitting back with the same vigor, and hitting back in a timely manner.

There will also be whispering campaigns meant to play the race card (a favorite GOP tactic since 1964), e-mails, robo-calls, flyers, YouTube videos. And they will do it in a way that keeps their nominee's fingerprints off of it.

They will constantly refer to him as Barack Hussein Obama. Over and over again, and then feign innocence when anybody calls them out about it.

This guy is not ready for the prime time of a general election campaign, even though I'm sure he'd be a fine president.
