The gift that keeps on giving

I'm not quite as optimistic as Mr. Atkins concerning 2012 (Obama wins, we take back the House, lose the Senate), but even I have to admit when they're best candidate gives us a tailor made attack ad ("Corporations are people, my friend!" running on a loop forever in October of 2012) you have to figure Obama's chances may not be all that bad.

And Boehner's claim that he got 98% of what he wanted in the debt ceiling deal will probably also look good in an ad in October 2012, because, barring a miracle, the economy is still going to suck and Boehner now owns 98% of suck.

Of course, there's always 2012's Fred Thompson--Governor Rick Perry, who will supposedly announce his candidacy in a few days.  He is supposed to be the republican's newest great hope, but I have a hard time believing the American people (not the same as the republican party) will forget what happened the last time we elected a nitwit from Texas.

Peace,
