Jesus would weep:
As David Boaz says, all that helped George W Bush win a second term, didn’t it? (Albeit with an assist from John Kerry. Against that, remember how close John Kerry was to winning. It remains entirely possible, however, that the Republican party will nominate someone even less promising than the Senator from Massachussetts.)Former Vice President Dick Cheney . . . said President Obama is likely to be a one-term president because his policies are unpopular with the public. “His overall approach to expanding the size of government, expanding the deficit, and giving more and more authority and power to the government over the private sector,” Mr. Cheney said in an interview with Jamie Gangel for NBC News. “Those are all weaknesses, as I look at Barack Obama. And I think he’ll be a one term President.”
