hi dig,

call me strange but i don't see the broad discontent. i just see the usual fox discontent affixed to the democratic president.

given the circumstances of 2008, the us has done relatively well. obamacare is an improvement on most measures. the financial markets are somewhat regulated. unemployent has decreased (even if wages aren't on fire).

it's foreign policy where things haven't gone so well. clearly intervening in the arab world didn't work. now we know not intervening doesn't work. not many options left!

ignoring the polls, the US rarely gives three straight, Dukakis losing to Bush really has more to do with Dukakis than anything else. A candidate like Gore would have beaten Bush I. Similarly, how on earth did Gore lose to Bush II given the geopolitcal and economic climate of the time?

Given the broad discontent today, I just don't see a threepeat.
