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.
That's true. But, as Bush taught us well, beating expectations becomes a positive. All he has to do to start with is do better than expected. It then becomes the story, repeated because it is interesting and is news. Conservatives will whine about the liberal media, but it will simply be him doing beter than expected. With some help with events, it is POSSIBLE that the metrics change between now and then.
