To brace ourselves for the next four to eight years of executive failure, it might be helpful to ask the following question: Which Democratic presidency will Obama's presidency most resemble? Will Obama be like FDR, bringing unprecedented growth of government and seven years of economic hardship? Will Obama be more like Jimmy Carter, marching into Washington on grand promises of change, only to get fired after four years of abject failure? Or will Obama be like Bill Clinton and subject us to an endless parade of scandals?

great site, saw you on Cons 4 Palin where i am a contributor, take care and Happy Holidays...
He won't have four terms to fail like FDR. Americans don't have the patience. It will be more like Carter.
clay,
I hope your right, by the way does all of the above work for your choices.
Yes, I was thinking some people would say "all of the above"
Well we already have the tempest in the teapot scandalwith Blag reminiscent of Clinton, a possible Depression like FDR, and an energy crunch as with Carter. I am going with all of the above.
I think Obama's presidency is going to be a lot like Carter's, which is the worst-case scenario. I'm hoping it'll be more like Clinton's: not that I liked Clinton, but he wasn't as disastrous as Carter.
But, hey, maybe we need another Carter to bring forth another Reagan, like Bobby Jindal!
