31. If Obama wants a second term...
he'll drift away from the very liberal section of the Democratic Party. I predict his nominee for SCOTUS will be a liberal but not a "flaming liberal" as you would prefer.

Obama is quite possibly the most gifted political strategist of our life time. I base that observation on the fact that he derailed the coronation of Queen Hillary during the primary. She was blindsided by his brilliant campaign.

I'm beginning to see the subtle shift beginning. On issues such as gun control and releasing the torture photos he has moved away from the extremely liberal position of our party.

If I'm right, he'll drive you crazy but he'll win reelection and should preserve or increase the control of Congress that we enjoy.

But remember, eight years of Obama is far better then four years of Obama and four years of someone like Sarah Palin.
