(10,857 posts)President Obama is and has been a total friggin' genius compared to the Republicans, able to outmaneuver them at every turn, even when they resorted to their foolish "no to everything" defense in Congress. And this time, he's perfectly focused on using the power of the White House to increase Democratic gains across the board. So his effectiveness is increasing in this election year in which he does not have to run himself.
It's yet another example of his uncanny ability to turn a perceived disadvantage into an asset--and he is already the best I have ever seen at it.
At the same time the Dems have qualified and competent candidates who are polling double-digits ahead of whichever goon wins the Republican clown-fight, and the overwhelming Democratic lead appears to be filtering through the Senate and even the gerrymandered House.
It could be a big, big year for us. Really big.
