Hi dig,

All things equal, I've thought Obama would win for maybe a year. clo may remember around about when. But the Republican superpacs are larger than I had previously imagined. Not sure how that plays out in the marketplace.

But it will be an even more lifeless second term even if he wins. Now that the senate filibuster has become a frequently used tool, the US system will continue to function poorly. I don't see much of anything happening over the next four years, whoever wins.

The experiments that might fix what ails the US just aren't possible, with all the layers of veto power in the system.

can successfully debate Obama?

Is the bubble so big that Obama is dull (cause Romney is just plain dull already).

It is interesting ... certainly they can wobble to a draw, and maybe Mitt can pull a trick, but odds are the man from Chicago crushes the dude with the silver spoon.

Both are well educated intelligent and capable folks, but were I on the right I would not be looking forward to this. Yes, I know, he is black and all, but the rich dude is a Mormon, so that makes all of that a wash.

One barometer I used to follow indicated that reelection was simply gas price, and that in this year it was at 3.75 a gallon, under goes to the incumbent, over to the challenger.

Onto that the constant grilling of Obamacare is dullingits edges, many in the middle starting to think, well, ok, I don't like it per se, but hey, it is something ... lets see how it goes.

The erosion of anti-Obamacare numbers is an early indicator, if it continues, this thing is over.
