The Obama Administration will be judged on how it tackles the medical insurance fat cats and the Wall St. fat cats by Democrats and Independent voters, Republicans don’t matter.
The Republican base is mostly old white men. It is a decreasing base. The Republican Party becomes more irrelevant as time goes by.
Jobs and health care are related. When real people lose their jobs their health care and the health of their families goes too. So death by insurance company is on the increase. It looks like at best, the job market will stay flat for several years.
Obama could be a one term president. But Republicans shouldn't get excited. The odds of a racist Republican White Separatist extremist like Palin winning the presidency in 2012 are about 10,000 to one.
As the cloud of depression lingers, I think the White Nationalists among the teabaggers will grow restless and start blowing up Federal buildings again. I think we are in for some really tough times.
Paul Krugman has been batting nearly 1000 on his opinion of the economy. It ain't for nothing that he won the Noble Prize. The Anzio analogy is a good one:
