Carteresque?

Barack Obama in 2012 is nothing like Jimmy Carter in 1980. Just because Obama is the most vulnerable incumbent President running for re-election since 1980 (according to the polls), just because he inherited a sluggish economy that has yet to fully recover, just because Iran is suddenly a bone of contention for him, just because fuel prices could suddenly go up as a result of an Iran-related crisis, just because it's been difficult if not impossible to borrow money in this country, just because his handling of Afghanistan is an issue, just because some voters personally like him but think he's in over his head, just because he has a million-watt smile . . .

. . . and just because there's a very good chance that Obama could lose the presidential election this year to an intellectually challenged, opportunistic Republican incompetent, that doesn't mean voters could think Obama's effort at changing the country for the better is all . . . peanuts.

But, unlike Carter, at least Obama wasn't frightened by a WHITE RABBIT!

Feed your ego, baby.  Happy new year. ;-)
