Obama done. Think again.


"In the political marketplace, there's now a run on Obama shares. The left is disappointed with the president. Independents are abandoning him in droves. And the right is already dancing on his political grave, salivating about November when, his own press secretary admitted ... Democrats might lose the House. I have a warning for Republicans: Don't underestimate Barack Obama. ... For Obama, 2010 matters little. If Democrats lose control of one or both houses, Obama will likely have an easier time in 2012, just as Bill Clinton used Newt Gingrich and the Republicans as his foil for his 1996 re-election campaign. Obama is down, but it's very early in the play. Like Reagan, he came here to do things. And he's done much in his first 500 days. What he has left to do he knows must await his next 500 days -- those that come after re-election. 2012 is the real prize. Obama sees far, farther than even his own partisans. Republicans underestimate him at their peril." --columnist Charles Krauthammer
