Obama will use Reagan playbook for re-election
http://politicalwire.com/archives/2010/08/03/obama_using_reagan_playbook.html

In 1984, Reagan used Carter to scare voters, well, not such a bad idea for President Obama to use the worst president in history, Bush, to remind voters who got us in the mess were in the first place...We don't need to win 49 states (as Reagan did in 84), I'll be happy w/270 electoral votes..

I mean, if Bush got 2 terms, Preisdent Obama deserves 2 terms...No one, ever, will be worse than 43..

1. The rhetoric will be the same.
“After all our struggles to restore America, to revive confidence in our country, hope for our future, after all our hard-won victories earned through patience and courage of every citizen, we cannot, must not, and will not turn back. We will finish our job." - Ronald Reagan

2. Sounds like someone trying to hype Reagan and diss Carter.
Carter wasn't Bush.

3. You mean he will make deals with the nation's enemies to keep American hostages?
I don't think so. Only Reagan and Company were that evil.

5. Democrats have been Crappy so far but the Alternative is much WORSE!
Democrats have done a lousy job and continue to grow and become more corrupt but seeing as how republicans are 100% owned by corporate america i have no choice but to stick to my party of 70% wholly owned. The political system needs a reworking because the ease of corruptability is killing us all.
