I don't see how he can over come the problems that face him.
The war in Afghanistan is going badly, and losing the faith of the American people.
The entire middle east is in upheaval, far worse shape then when he took over
North Korea is thumbing it's nose at the US
Iran is furthering their ability to obtain nukes.
Generally in the worlds eyes, we are now seen as far less of a force then when he took office.
He is going to have a fight on his hands with everything to do with his health care bill
Our nation debt has the American people up in arms
Deficit spending is just plain out of sight.
Unemployment is still higher then when he took office.
We are no closer to and alternate “green” fuel then before. And gas and oil prices are rising.
We are just as dependent on foreign oil or more so then before.
He has lost many seniors because they have not received a increase in SS in two years.
Inflation is just now starting to rear it's ugly head, and may well continue to worsen.
The left sees him as to far to the center.
The right sees him as to far to the left.
You have to realize that he really only has a year to work on all these things, because starting at the end or sooner of this year, the campaigning begins, even if a couple of the listed things manage to get better, there is still a long list that he is going to have to defend himself again.
Any way you look at it, it's going to be an uphill battle. I will agree with jambalaya, it's still to early to call, and there will have to be a viable opponent. If the Republicans try to put up another moderate like McCain, there is a good chance of losing, Some one like Mitt Romney. In my opinion would be a good choice, add Chris Christie* to the ticket as VP and I think you would have a winning ticket.
