Think of the campaign statement: Would you vote for the party that brought you wars they could not win, a failing economy... a party unable to finish what they started... or would you vote for Obama, the President that got the US out of the hole, saved GM and Chrysler and tens of thousands of jobs, and took out Bin Ladin, effectively chopping the head off the world's terrorist organizations?
Even the Republican faithful would have a hard time figuring out how to beat this situation. This is a capper, the proof of a "get it done" attitude that didn't come with a ton of fanfare and bullshit tossing press conferences (a la Shrub Bush), but rather someone who quietly and effectively lead the country to complete a mission that is near and dear to the hearts of people on all sides of the political spectrum.
My feeling is that it is all up from here. Gold and Silver are already taking a beating, oil futures are falling, and all this before the US even gets to work on a Monday morning. From there, the US dollar should start to pick up the slack, and by the time we get to the next Presidential election, it should be clear that Obama pulled the US out of the shit and got rid of the #1 most wanted man in the world while doing it.
You don't think that counts for something? Or are you waiting for the long form death certificate that Trump is probably asking for?
