One of my theories is that the best chance to defeat Obama in 2012 is to make the election about Obama, not about the Republican candidate.  The Obama record is so abysmal, and the Obama aura so shattered, that 2012 could be a repeat of...

Obama -- who actually did take substantial illegal foreign money for his campaign -- is accusing Republicans of being quite unAmerican for supposedly taking foreign money as part of this election cycle.Put aside the sheer audacity and falsity of this dopiness.This is exactly what I predicted time and time again...
