1. Shit happens

$5 a gallon gas, for example, and voters will lose their freaking minds.

Do people think they are going to win the lottery? They still buy tickets.

2. Non starters

The big boys are going to step in and bring in there bench riders Jebby and Mitchie.

3. Neut suffers from a common political disease called delusion of adequacy.

He will never even imagine he won't be elected by acclamation.

Losers call for more debates and complain when the winner won't show. This is politics 101.

11. they could be...It is not over until the fat lady sings..

Personally, I think Obama will probably be reelected. But I can certainly imagine very plausible scenarios in which Mitt and even Newt could end up as President of the United Sates. For example, war in the Persian Gulf combined with the already unstable economic situation in Europe leading to a global economic meltdown could have the potential for creating the catastrophe of a President Romney or even a President Gingrich. I don't think this is particularly likely. But it is possible and plausible. Let us all hope and pray that peace prevails on the Straits of Hormuz.
