If only FDR had had Obama’s winning ways.

neo: I too think the republicans will hold the house and perhaps increase their majority. Gaining a majority in the senate right now looks like a horse race. I think a filibuster proof republican majority is unlikely. Yet, I remain confident that R&R will win by a nose.

However, I have steeled my spirit for a BHO win. Should that come to pass I will enter a zero tolerance zone for any fascism, mild or otherwise, that shows up in my town. Although my town will be far down the list of towns needing internment and reeducation. If BHO wins those of you in the east coast, west coast, and large metro areas will be the first to feel this:

parker: I think Republicans will retain the House, and the Senate will be close.

BHO unleashed from the need to reelected, aided and abetted by the MSM, will know no bounds. Instead of czars we will see grand inquisitors. Neo is correct, without a republican majority in the house and a filibuster proof majority in the senate, BHO will be the emperor via executive orders.

SCOTUS has shown it will not stop BHO’s over reach. That leaves the military, but the Joint Chiefs of Staff are largely political animals and not to be relied upon. The worst case scenario is that it will come down to us, the residents of Main Street USA.

NeoNeocon,

I have no confidence in Republican opposition to Obama but the Republican House would be enough had they the courage of their convictions on par with Obama’s in his. Obama could fiat, diktat, and executively order to his heart’s malcontent; all the House would have to do is reply “Fair enough, but pay for it yourself Mr. President”.

Oh how I should love to see the day that fight began.

George Pal: sorry, but I don’t think a Republican Congress will thwart him much. First of all, the Senate may not even go Republican, and it would have to go strongly Republican to overcome the filibuster (which Democrats spent the last 2 years railing against, but which they will embrace if it is to their benefit). Secondly, Obama will be going around Congress and doing things by executive fiat. He’s been learning how easy that is, and who’s to stop him? There would not be enough votes to impeach him, either.

NeoNeocon: I both agree and disagree with you.

He is, as always, keen on his ego. His agenda, I think he thinks, would be, in the short run, thwarted by a Republican House and in the long run inevitable, believing the right side of history and progress (not up, but to the Left) will prevail. He has done his part in his first term, bringing together the factions and facilitating the transformation of the illegal into the entitled and thereby guaranteeing a permanent entitled voter constituency for the ‘caring’ Party. Also if he has half the intelligence that’s been attributed to him he might not want to be around when the ship of state runs aground. He, his cohorts, and minions, could of course blame Bush but everything but everything has a ‘do not use beyond ?’ shelf life.

Bob from Virginia: How bad can it get if Obama is re-elected? Very bad, as I wrote two years ago:

And then, and then–voila! Four more years! Four years in which he won’t have to answer to the electorate at all. He will be unleashed to do whatever it is he really wants. And does anyone think that would look moderate at all?

I’m with Expat. There is another factor should Obama win, as indeed it seems he will. We’ve been lucky that things aren’t worse than they are. I submit this is partially due to the prospect that Obama will be out in 2013. With his re-election, his proven incompetence and nefarious conduct in every area of government what can we expect? How bad can it get and how?

Just a question, which is the true American electorate, 2010 or 2008? The polls seem senseless.

I’m not so sure he would remain darling of the Western world. As soon as he is removed from power, I bet Western leaders will start leaking their honest feelings about him.
