You Heard It Here First

This article is more than enough evidence for me to secure my suspicions about President Obama being elected for a second term.  Why you might ask would I say such a thing about President Obama when the article referes to Donald Trump.  Here is my thought process.

Trump is pulling out of the Republican party so he can run as an Independent in 2012.  It is clear as day to me, and plenty of other people know that he has wanted to do this.  He has gone so far as to suggest that he would on TV, print and digital media.  Should he do so, it will have (in my mind) devastating effects on the Republican Party in the general election.

Why would Trump be a problem to the Republicans and not President Obama?  Because Trump can go around picking up the pieces that are left after Romney comes out with the nomination.  Yes, Romney will come out with the nomination.  He is moderate enough to attract some moderates/ moderate liberals and  just ever so appealing to the conservatives that he will get it.  The problem is, and this is were Trump comes in, he is not going to get the most Conservative of the party.  The Tea Party will most surely fall in line with Trump and some of the middle of the conservative road (the moderates of the right you might say) will go for Trump as well.  Thus, with the Republicans will split and President Obama will win.

You might be saying to yourself "How can he say that so soon?" "What does it know that I don't"  The answers are: history and nothing.  One merely has to look at the 1990 election between Clinton and Bush 41.  Ross Perot came in as the "Common Sense Conservative" and pocketed votes from Bush by the trash bag.  Yes Bush was the incumbent but it is the same principle as now.  Trump will come in as say all the right things, spend massive amounts of money (stack Perot up against Trump and you'll see the only difference is a TV show) and pick up the crumbs from Romney.

You wait and see my friends, and when it happens you'll say to yourself "Ya know, I read that somewhere?!?" That's when I step in and say "Right here."

Happy Christmas All!
