I am amazed at the confidence.
BTW, I didn't say anything about running scared. In fact, the Dems, like you, think that they have America behind them when they don't. We'll see what happens in November.
The first year of Obama was a disaster.
The Stimulus Bill didn't stimulate.
The health care reform bill didn't happen (and won't for a while).
The war is still going and getting worse.
There is now a specter of terrorism in the US.

You quoted the one question from my lengthy post in your retort and then still refuse to answer it. Why is that?
"The Stimulus Bill didn't stimulate."
- Seems many economists would disagree with you and feel that it will take more time and we'd be much worse off without it.
"The health care reform bill didn't happen (and won't for a while)."
- Are you expecting it to pass overnight? It;s one of the biggest legislative changes in 40 years.
"The war is still going and getting worse." -
Afghanistan was always going to be the war that Obama said we would concentrate on. 7 years of War on Bush's watch and Obama is being decried by you for not stopping it all within 12 months? That's funny....AND hypocritical.
"There is now a specter of terrorism in the US."
- Right, because there wasnt any under Bush. Let's play a game of 'neo-con pretend':
(Rules: well, let's make those up as we go along, but since this is the 'neo-con pretend- game, let's use the criteria that FOX News is now using. They simply had to be Muslim people who did it to qualify as a terrrrrritst attack. Easy enough, LET'S PLAY!!
1. Pretned that 9/11 didn't happen.
2. Pretend that the Anthrax attacks never happened.
3. Pretend that the shoe-bomber never happened
4. Pretend that the muslim man who ran over and killed people in his car in n.c. in 2006 never happened.
5. Pretend that the D.C. Snipers never happened
Oh....and since ALL attacks, foiled or not are being levied against Obama, let's go back and pretend that these never happend as well. BTW, I used FOX News as the source.
