I honestly think the right knows they don't stand a chance, that's why they have the "clowns" they have running for the nomination. The same thing happened in 2008, they knew they didn't stand a chance so they let the least likely person, McCain, have his last chance to make a run for the WH.

This time the field of "clowns" they have running, the bottom of the barrel, make it even more obvious that they are keeping their so called "big guns", Jeb, Christie, Daniels, etc. on the side lines till 2016. This time I think they will be trying to steal the congressional races, and will be pumping money into those races, more so than the race for president.

They have no plan at all on how to fix the mess that Bush and his gang of morons got us into, and keeping president Obama in office, with them still in control of at least one branch of congress blocking everything, works well for them getting control in 2016. By then they hope the mess Bush and company made of the "world" will have smoothed over and they won't have to come up with any "real" plans or ideas.
