Thanks Obama. Steady as she goes. ;)

This should assure his re-election.:rolleyes:

Obama would win a third term just like Bill would've. Those post WWII Republicans were prescient.

It don't hurt Hillary's chances neither. ;)
Just one more entry into the record books for his 'Coolness'. How many consecutive months of job growth is he at now? 77 - 78? :)

Good !!

Reagan would have too, but we got Bush I, which begat Bush II, but Bush III was bamboozled. Simply fascinating. :)
I (business wise) got screwed by all three except Bill, but still do not trust H-->, since she is a Bill Lite. :D

It makes no difference at all.

Are you always this dour? :rolleyes:

He's right.

Riiiiight, cause the state of the economy never influences elections. :rolleyes:
