In a generic poll by the Gallup organization, a Republican candidate would beat The Barry in 2012 by a 44% to 39% margin (see: Gallup Poll). This corresponds to what Rush Limbaugh has been saying for many weeks ... that Elmer Fudd could beat Obama in the next election. This realization has spurned a bit of franetic activity in the White House ... sending The Barry on thinly-disguised campaign trips. One of the trips was to the Cree Corp. in Durham, North Carolina which makes LED replacement lightbulbs with the purpose to tout his green energy and job creation thrusts. The only problem here is that Cree has relocated half of its manufacturing jobs to China. The second trip was to Puerto Rico to pander to the Hispanic vote in the next election. Again there was a rub in this Presidential grandstanding ... the jobless rate in Puerto Rico when The Barry took office was a little over 9% -- it is now 16.2% (see N.Y.Times).
Of course circumstances could change in the next 16 months, but, at the moment, Elmer looks like a shoe-in.

That's all folks!!!!
Funny that you hope nothing gets better, just so you can be right. That's what I call ass-backward thinking.
