1. Actually. We are better off now than we were 4 years ago.

The Republicans can't ask that question.

That will probably be #4.

Do you really want to put the people in power who lost 800,000 jobs a month.

2. this isn't Cenk's best stuff

he is picking apart an imaginary version of the Obama 2012 campaign.

Obama may be a 6 as a POTUS but he is a solid 10 as a marketer. Obama is winning in 2012; hopefully we can move some congressional seats.

6. a 6!, I would love to see what your version of a Democratic 2 would be (hint, Obama is mine)

2 implies a 20% progressive agenda passed. Even that is generous.

8. Actually he's closer to a 3 as POTUS

and anyone with an IQ higher then their shoe size knows that his marketing is nothing but bullshit. The people will not be so easily fooled this time. He will probably win but only because the alternative is s so bad. He won't win because people believe he's a good president.

3. so all they have is a) threats

and b) the discredited, imperialist notion of the "pre-rational" Primitive Mind that went out the window among professionals in, oh, 1937 with Evans-Pritchard's thesis that non-Europeans were as rational and human as the ones with Victorian Christianity, capitalism, telegraphs, mauve dyes, mass-produced rifles, and colonial ideologies

4. cenk's analysis of Obama's imagined '12 campaign

Cenk's shrieking voice gives me a headache in my ears. I wonder why he feels it necessary to scream and yell. It makes me want to stop listening, which is too bad, most of the time.
