Anything's possible, I guess. But I tentatively disagree. It's a long time before the election and anything can happen.

Obama has lost a lot of support from Liberals, myself included, but its not because we believe he's too Socialist, or hates America, or is a Muslim Kenyan Mau-mau Makaka anti-colonialist. We are disappointed because he has not stood up to Republican thugs in congress and has actually tried to meet them halfway and deal with them while they deliberately tried to sabotage the country so they could put it all on him.

We may be disappointed with Obama but that does not automatically translate to adopting the nihilism of the Tea Party. And people who run for President don't give it up. LBJ inherited the office, he was primarily a creature of the legislature.

A primary challenge is unlikely, not because Democrats aren't disillusioned, but because there is no one in the wings to replace him except Hillary, and I don't think she wants any part of it.

So whether we stay with a good man but a weak President who has failed to meet his promise, or we deliberately go with someone of unknown competence but unquestioned villainy and lunatic political philosophy. That is our choice.

Not that all Republicans are totally unacceptable. Romney will be another Obama, colorless and bland, but the nation would survive him. Huntsman would probably make a good President, but his own party will never nominate him. He comes across as a sane and compassionate intellectual. He's the only one in that gang with any brains except for Gingrich, and he is an unprincipled opportunist even other Republicans can't stomach. Bachmann and Perry are out to lunch, but one will probably get the nomination.

My prediction is Perry will be our next President, my confidence level is 70%. Stand by for heavy rolls.
