I agree with your comment esp about 2012. Unless Obama totally bungles things he will be re-elected. I have believed all along he would be a two term president. The Republicans are still in disaray and need to sort themselves out if they want to put a viable candidate out there in 2012.[/QUOTE]
Don't get me wrong though, a Coakley lost will be a big hit to the White House. But like I said, you need another heavy weight to put in the ring in 2012, and right now Sarah Palin, Mitt Romney, and Mike Huckabee are the front runners. Someone like Senator John Thune could emerge as a player, I don't know. But he's more of a long shot than a viable candidate at this point.
