#1 A top GOP aide, asked about who would easily get through confirmation should Obama win a second term,

If the Champ wins a second term, it really won't matter who is State.

#5 On the one hand, he'd be out of the Senate.

#7 On the one hand, he'd be out of the Senate

Yes but the great state of Massaholia would appoint his replacement. Deval Patrick is the proto-Obama and you'd probably get Elizabeth Warren assuming she doesn't beat Scott Brown.
