[QUOTE="HackerF15E, post: 1808189, member: 9689"] This has to be one of the most ridiculous arguments that I've ever heard, yet it keeps getting repeated as some rationale for an opportunity for a 2nd term Obama to take extreme measures that he was "too timid" to attack in this term. No, Obama could not get elected again if he was in a 2nd term -- [B]but there are tons of other Democrats who can[/B]. Both parties remember what happened in the 1994 elections and the 2010 elections -- mid-term elections in which members of the President's party were slaughtered at the polls for their State and Congressional seats. Those other politicians paid for the mis-steps of the President. It's a VERY recent memory for the Obama Administration that provided some instant feedback for how Americans felt about getting health care reform crammed down their throats. The Democratic Party and everyone in Obama's Administration knows that if he tries a stunt like this again, Democrats all over the country will pay dearly. They will not let him clown it up for everyone. [/QUOTE]
