2. That is a possibility but it still concludes in no second term.

We discussed the economy's role when you were still worried Obama might not win. Bush was a hero after 9/11. He was still good enough to win a next term even with a war going bad because the economy had not tanked.

We started the ass kickin before the economy really turned south.
It is impossible to say for sure what did it and it is more than a little bit of a stretch to say definitively that Obama needed those factors in order to win. It is imminently possible that Obama wins regardless of what was happening with the economy or the war for that matter.

Of course it is. I would say its about a 1 mm stretch.

You had to have those major industrial states go bad.
That definitely helped Obama's cause and the change he said
would be implemented that no Republican would believe.

Now the Rep. are having to eat their words about change.
