10 Reasons Obama Will Not Be Re-Elected
2012-03-09

#6  But gas prices can easily be blamed on the evil oil companies, not Obama.

#5  Gasoline prices should probably be #1 on the list.

People can't easily get a feel for how the economy is doing and the difference between a 2.5% GDP growth and 2.8% GDP growth probably doesn't amount to much.

However, gasoline is purchased often and when it is purchased, it hurts. While it is true that the Obama administration isn't solely responsible for the high prices, its also true that very few in the public are willing to let the administration off with no blame whatsoever.

Furthermore, at some point, probably not more than another 25 cents or so, the high gas prices will visibly and negatively feed back into the economy and wipe out whatever credit Obama tries to claim for the recovery.

Your naughty time is now subject to the perusals and inquiries of Public Activity audits and freedom of information.

#3  1. It's sad that scandals like Fast & Furious failed to make the list. That alone should be enough.

2. It's worse that the likely R nominee won't mention any of this either.

#2  The article appears to ignore the fact that all of those new welfare, food stamp, medical care, public employee union, endless unemployment, and other pubic trough leeches recipients will vote to keep getting Other Peoples Money. I sincerely hope that Zero is defeated, but I wouldn't bet on it.

#1  I put my trust in the Republicans' ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.
