B...I mean, for the existential event, any old time. But by that I mean something that destroys cities, something that destroys one of the key myths, and hence something that is unlikely.<br /><br />I don't think Obama has a 44% base. I think his hard base is confined to a large subset of African Americans that may or may not show up to vote plus a certain chunk of the extreme left of the Democrats. The left, center and right of the Democrats may or may not show up to vote.<br /><br />Of course I also depends on the candidate opposing him but not, I think, so much as one would suppose.vanderleunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10296245324443413545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-48864823014774877002011-11-21T09:24:44.503-08:002011-11-21T09:24:44.503-08:00Do you mean, between now and the election, or are ...Do you mean, between now and the election, or are you thinking that O has a good chance to win?<br /><br />Today I read that Obama will win because he has a solid base of 44% that will vote for him blindly. We know that Mitt does not inspire anyone to vote for him. Thus, an enthusiasm gap.<br /><br />Still, I think that a good Republican will beat O, and by a lot. I suppose that that's my way of keeping hope alive.Stuart Schneidermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12784043736879991769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-72881980910117001732011-11-21T09:15:00.734-08:002011-11-21T09:15:00.734-08:00Agreed but that's what it's come to and, a...Agreed but that's what it's come to and, absent some intense existential event, that's where it will stay.
