The conditions are actually in place for Obama to win this going away…in other words, by a margin between 3 and 7 million votes…and for the Democrats to take back the House and have a larger majority in the Senate. The campaign hasn’t really begun on the Democratic side. They are saving their most potent arguments for after Labor Day in 2012…but the Republicans have over-reached and become tone-deaf to what the people want. They squandered their victory in 2010 and will pay. I’ll bet my chips on this.
