But what will cost Obama a second term, if he fails to win re-election, won't be Democratic "arrogance" or a health care "debacle." It will be the continuing shiteness of the economy, a fundamental, structural and enduring shiteness that was not of his manufacture, no matter what your objections are to his methods for dealing with it (from left or right, I have mine, I'm sure you have yours).
What the Republicans have learned from this election is that preventing Democrats from taking even those baby steps they might actually be able to take without tripping over their own chubby feet to mitigate the overall shiteness wins votes. GOP priorities are not to make things better between now and 2012, but to ensure continued shiteness and make it stick to Obama. They now have everything they need to make sure it happens. Lucky us!
