Obama has done OK. He inherited a potential meltdown, averted disaster, GM is alive and well, OBL is dead and the Al Qaida leadership is the most dangerous job in the world. The economy is slowly heading for a solid recovery. We are out of Iraq and getting out of Afghanistan. Health care has been expanded to millions. Gays can serve openly in the military.

I don't agree with everything he is doing (let's close Gitmo and get some legal guidelines for drone use). He needed to sell the American people on health care and play tougher with the Republican obstructionists. But on the whole he has done a good job.

I hope he has coat tails and gets a mandate, that the deal to avoid the fiscal cliff in December includes some revenue. We need to get rid of the Boosh (worst President since Mussolini) tax cuts for the rich and get some more jobs stimulus programs to repair infrastructure and add cops, teachers, etc.

Wind down the war and invest in the future, this country will come back strong in his second term. Piss away the slow recovery on tax cuts for the rich and start more wars, and we will be fucked.
