Good News for Democrats According to NYT's Frank Rich

See here.

According to a poll cited in Rich's piece today 51% of GOP likely primary voters in the 2012 elections believe our President was not born in the United States and 21% are not sure. THAT is being out of touch with reality.

Rich wonders who the GOP has to offer up against the Prez next election cycle. Mitt Romney is the great white hope, but he's Mormon and responsible for "Romneycare" down in Massachusetts. Palin is trying to get rich, and it is hurting her polling numbers. She appears to be a niche candidate without any broad based polling potential (thankfully). And Rand Paul is, frankly, nuts. The rest are fringe candidates likely, in my opinion, to go down in flames next November (should they win the GOP primary battle) during President Obama's reelection campaign in 2012. This is, admittedly, predicated on the economy heating up, as I believe it will by next spring.

I see one of the biggest landslides in American political history in the reelection of our Prez next year and a retaking of Congress by the Dems.
