Desperation by the folks on the right.
Lets be real, if the economy moves along as it has the past 3 months then Obama will win....and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it.
No that is not certain, the economic recovery is still very fragile and vulnerable to market events(i.e. Europe) in the coming weeks & months. Only time will tell if it will give Obama a significant enough boost to win reelection. So far over the past couple of months into the new year, it hasn't.
Europe is already in a recession, and it is not having any affect on the economy. A few months ago I would have agreed with you, but the recent data is putting to that this may be a legit recovery.
