And I don’t know if that’s good or bad. (But an Obama administration without Tim Geithner would definitely be an improvement.)[/quote]
SK: I think an Obama 2nd term would be the best thing to happen to the GOP and not for the reasons you might imagine. The GOP has been in the wilderness for a while now and there is a war going on for the soul of the party. Obama being re-elected would force the party to confront the elements that have radicalized it and drive them back to the fringe, where they belong.
I think there would be something of a reckoning on the Dem side as well, and largely for the same reasons. We could return to those working coalitions of the past and actually get some friggin’ work done on Capitol Hill.
Definitely gonna be an interesting year, anyway you cut it.
