The False Messiah’s poll ratings have increased in recent weeks. The media’s Obama Boom theme is working. The GOP as always has no coherent message and is an utterly useless political organization. Bouyed by this, Senate Democrats are confident in Obama’s re-election. They are also increasingly confident in their odds on holding the Senate.
Senate Democrats are optimistic about President Obama’s chances of re-election and think he may have coattails this November.
Democratic lawmakers described the president as being “really upbeat” and in a “good mood” on Wednesday when he addressed the Senate Democratic caucus during a one-day retreat at Nationals Park in Southeast D.C.
They said Obama’s campaign manager Jim Messina gave an encouraging presentation on the president’s strategy for winning re-election, a plan that relied heavily on using social media to mobilize voters.
IF the GOP loses in 2012, a Party reformation is needed.

While we can’t do anything about the bias of the media, Republicans could get a coherent message out, could nominate candidates with the stones to attack the terrible policies of Obama and could fight back.
I found a good column on 5 things conservatives could learn from the left.
The party needs to take this to heart.
@ mfhorn:
Too many Conservatives are stubborn and refuse to emulate the Left’s message system.
Obama will be a formidible candidate. That cannot be discounted. People who think we will win by default aren’t paying attention to what is going on.

The repubs also are willing to share power rather than lead. However, last week’s Gallup Poll show a huge Obama defeat in November. As soon as the GOP has a nominee, there will be a singular anti-Obama message. Also, if King O doesn’t back off his contraceptive mandate (I actually hope he doesn’t) that will be the last nail for him.

I certainly hope that’s true. Another 4 years of an Obama administration, and I don’t know that this country could ever recover.
@ huckfunn:
That’s against an un named Republican. But Obama is beating every Republican in head to heads.
He has the most powerful political machine ever assembled. Plus unlike the GOP,. The Democrats are disciplined and stay on message.

He’s winning against a divided field. When there is 1 nominee, there will be one united anti-Obama message.
Also; I’m really not sure what is the good of the constant defeatist message. “Oh no, we’ve really had it; Obama is such a bad ass; Yessiree, we’re doomed”. I just don’t buy it and I don’t think the constant drumbeat of pessimism helps our cause. What’s your opinion of that Gallup map that I posted?

It doesn’t.
@ Rodan:
Too bad we can’t actually nominate an “unnmamed Republican,” sort of like Pelosi’s “We have to pass the bill to see what’s in it” deal…
@ huckfunn:

I think its meaningless. It doesn't name an opponent against Obama.
If you want to believe Obama is easy to beat, go ahead.
@ lobo91:
Yeah, one can dream.
When no one will lend to the US and no one will accept dollars then it’ll all stop

This is all before consolidation and before the head to head debates.
@ Rodan:
He didn’t say it would be “easy” – he said accepting defeat 9 months before the election is pretty self-defeating.
@ m:
It is not going to be easy, but the media under estimates that their are a lot of people not happy with bho being president. Excatly who are they polling? That is the question.
@ Lily:
No shit.
The media knows that some people just want to back the winner so if they can convince enough people that is the zero, well there are some more votes guaranteed.
And they want to demoralize US so our turnout is depressed. More votes against their hero the zero- guaranteed not to be cast.
@ Lily:
Easy. They oversample Demo☭rat voters.

It’s interesting how 2 people who are on the same side of an issue (defeat Obama) can look at the same data and come away with 2 totally different views. Here’s how I see it. The poll shows Obama beating GOP candidates A,B, C & D because just about everyone has taken a stand by saying “I won’t vote for so & so because he did or said something or other”. Now, look at the Gallup poll that shows Obama losing in a landslide to an un-named candidate. The so-called un-named candidate is ANYBODY BUT OBAMA. That tells me that as soon as one of the current candidates becomes the GOP nominee, he will immediately jump way out in front of Obama.
Also, you’re confusing me with someone else. I never said that I believe Obama would be easy to beat.

Anyone but Obama. This latest power grab with the mandate for free abortions and contraceptives will be his downfall. When hardcore Obama slave, Chris Matthews, is on the same side as the Church, the world has turned upside down.
Tingles On Obama’s Contraception Mandate: Even Liberal Catholics Will Stand With The Church On This, “May Come To Civil Disobedience”…
It’s a plank issue. Pure conservatsm like a santorum will lose badly to Obama in the fall. The big blocks of voters close to the GoP are independents, libertarians, and hispanics. The Conservative GoP voter has to make common cause with the most important issue of those three groups. Independents want jobs and secure borders i think. Libertarians want less government and free pot(the first one is the better one). Putting Ron Paul in a position is a good thing to do even though we don’t like him. What do hispanics want?

The sad thing is that it is not just about contraception. They leave out abortions and this is a big issue with the Church.
@ Rodan:
Concur. But using some of the Left’s tactics works. It requires some thought, however, to figure out how to defeat their sense of moral superiority.

Once again the big issue is big government intruding into every aspect of our personal lives. It’s who Obama and the democrats are.
“The main reason I’m here is simple: I just want to say thank you,” Obama said. “I want to say thank you to each and every one of you, because the EPA touches on the lives of every single American every single day.”
