The more it goes, the more I think that, in the end, this may be the best route for the country as a whole.
Let me explain myself.
I think 2013 going forward is going to be really, really ugly for the US economy regardless of who is in office. Might as well be Obama as I believe no one can fix the mess at this point and, in the long run, it'll be better if a liberal donk is at the helm when the roof caves in. If the damage is as bad as I believe it'll be, perhaps true fiscal conservatives will find their feet and finally take control of government.
What the country needs is what the stock market gets before it re-sets itself.....total capitulation.
Who better to ruin the value of the US dollar (making our debt to China and others worthless), destroy the value of American homes and farms, and totally wreck the US economy than a big-government, money-printing, deficit-spending liberal donk? Who better to bring on total capitulation than Obama?
I just don't see limping along from one liberal administration to a semi-liberal one, and back to a liberal one as the answer. Look where that strategy has gotten the US so far.
The wild card in the whole thing is whether the cultural makeup of the country will have changed so much by the time total capitulation arrives that the majority of voters really do believe there's such a thing as a free lunch.
If that's the case, just add the United States to the list of once-great countries that authored their own demise.
