I think he will. The reason his poll numbers are so low now is because people simply expected way too much from him at the beginning of his presidency. With all things considered, I think he's done an ok job, could be better, but he's still accomplished major things. By the time 2012 comes around, Unemployment will surely be lower by then, we'll be out of Iraq and hopefully doing something meaningful in Afghanistan or withdrawing from there.

Sorry but
The expectations are = what he promised
|
People expect him to turn the economy around in 2 years when we had 8 years of bad policies.
|
OMG he did not promise he could clean this mess up in 2 yr's!

He promised he would get out of Iraq. He didn't. He promised to close Gitmo... twice. He didn't. He said if we did the bailouts, unemployment would not go higher then 8.5%. It did. He said if we pass healthcare, it would cost the average american less money. The CBO has stated that health insurance will cost more with the new law, then it would have otherwise.
He said he would bring both parties together. Nope. He said he would control spending. Nope.
That's just 7 quick ones off the top of my head. I could come up with dozens more if I thought about it, but I will stop. Now, give me 7 great things he has done in the two years he has been in office, or at least 7 things he said he would do, that he did.

war takes time. it's not just pull in pull out. aparently you don't understand strategy, but thats not something i'm going to argue about!
CBO? there playing it both ways. they say if this happens this happens and if that happens that happens. bad spin buddy. try something else. yes i watched CNNand they check with the CBO and Obama is on the mark by 52%. it's back and forth nothing solid the bill isn't perfect but at the lease we got something done.
well if the other side wants no part of bipartisanship even on the bills they help draft cause they want to play politic's then what you see is what you get. lets face it. nobody in washington wants to work together. and they dam sure don't want change. it's time to start over with our political system.
you control spending and see if you get to work on time. fix your car without spending and see if it can fix it's self. it will take spendding to fix this problem. the real problem is covering the cost of said spending. thats the only thing i agree with Republicans on. but thats not something i'd debate about.
i got a better idea. you give me more BS i can shoot down with my BS. call superman to save us. he's our only hope.
P.S. this is fun! my heads level now. i can do this without getting pissed off.
