Quote from 377OHMS:
He'll head back to Chicago and cash in, maybe become an alderman or mayor. He'll write books celebrating his greatness and achievements as president. His bitchy wife will abuse secret service agents and take a patronage job as a hospital adminstrator or something similar for alot of money and not much work. Liberals will lament about their years in power and how they saved the auto industry, averted a great depression and tamed the rising seas.
S'ok, just a long as he leaves Washington DC. I'm hoping Obamacare is repealed too. We need both things to happen.
I can say 'ok' get rid of 'obamacare' in the current form. A real healthcare plan, single payer, will hopefully bring the US into the top 5 countries in that regard. He let down the public by not pushing harder to get the other 50% of the population covered by a single payer. Like the half who are already on single payer plans, medicare, federal, military, states, city, and all the rest who enjoy such care.
In his second 4 years, unless something really dramatic happens, Jeb or Christie maybe, he can hopefully do the things that need to be done. He has some great victories, that the right will never admit to of course, and some not so good things (too much regulation in many cases), but without re-election restraints, hopefully more action.
Really sorry you feel that you 'need' both of those things to happen. Not likely of course, but it's weird that you feel so strongly about it. I know all the talking points, but since I think we try to be 'real people' here, it just makes me concerned about all the hatred of the President. And, yes, many on the left said horrible things about Mr. Bush, my only real concern was the unneeded wars.
If Romney were to win, I would adjust to the fact, and respect the man and the office. I might not have voted for him, but I won't hate him as a person. Not sure I can say the same if Santorum were to make, j/k. Harder to deal with, but again, if he were our President, I would adjust.
