Was just watching all of Obama's propaganda on his Youtube channel and I must say it's very good. It's actually top notch. Obama is one of the worst Presidents of my lifetime, but he manages to milk the most out of his few successes while amplifying his personal likability and family with amazing efficiency.

So it won't be easy to beat him. Obama has done more campaigning and lavish vacationing then governing, but it really doesn't matter when you have a propaganda machine like his. Obama can get away with hobnobbing with Jeffery Immelt who paid $0 on 14B in profit and Warren Buffett while holding endless 35,000 a plate fundraisers where he and his followers bemoan the 1% of Americans who aren't paying their "fair share" without worrying about a wider exposure of such hypocrisy to the public. Orwell once wrote, "in times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act," and so it is today. It will be hard for the public to get the truth when the message is controlled by Obama and his media accomplices. Most people will get the rosy visions we see on Youtube, and it will leave most Americans with the impression that Republicans and the rich have made life miserable for them. Its really quite amazing.

Sadly, I think it will work. I also think he will probably win reelection not only because of his propaganda efficiency, but because of Republican division and inefficiency. Rick Santorum doesn't have the chops or gravitas for a Presidential run, radical teapartiers might think he does, but they are wrong. They are the same people who brought us fatally flawed candidates like Sharron Angle, who couldn't even defeat a highly unpopular Harry Reid in Nevada, or everyone's favorite sorceress, Christine "I'm not a witch" O'Donnell.

Newt does have the gravitas and clout for the run, but he is carrying tons of dirty laundry and unsavory personal behavior. Character still does matter, and with all the dirt on Newt, it would make Obamas job easy. Obama would actually be transformed into the family values candidate if running against Newt. That's just not acceptable.

Then we have Ron Paul. Where do we begin. He could have the run in him. I really admire his principled stand on issues he believes in. He doesn't say things that poll well or generate a buzz in focus groups, he will talk about his actual views on policy, whether they are popular or not, but he slouches at the podium and creates questions about his judgement when he starts saying crazy things, like the US shouldn't have fought WWII, and that we brought the terror attacks of 911 on ourselves. Whenever Ron Paul starts getting somewhat palatable, his kooky followers remind everyone why he will always be a fringe candidate.

That leaves Romney. The only reasonable man who could actually go on the run even though radical tea partiers and Sarah Palin are doing everything they can to derail him. Sarah has been an unhelpful interference in this election. A long drawn out process doesn't help anyone but Obama. I'm really starting to think Obama is a shoe in with crazy people on Hot Air and other conservatives now  imagining that Rick Santorum can somehow make a run for the Presidency after taking a historic beating in his last election.

We can count on seeing the footage of Rick from 2005 comparing Senate Democrats to Hitler, which is a serious disregard of Senate decorum. Rick has a bit of a temper and isn't really cut out for the Presidency. So unless Romney starts making good headway and everyone starts getting behind him I won't have much faith that Obama can be defeated.
