The Money and the 2010 Mid Term Elections

The New York Times: Reports that the Liberal billionaire George Soros is keeping his money in these 2010 Mid Term Elections, he can read the tea leavers. When the biggest money man keeps his money its about time for Democrats to shut up shop and go home and lick their wounds. It looks like the Democrats are going to get a political earthquake in November, thus the Obama White House has to decide, does it co - operate with a Republican Congress or does it go down fighting, depends if POTUS has the wisdom to see his own faults, that the problem with arrogance, when it seen its to late, even if Obama goes down big time in 2012 he wont understand why, POTUS is brainy but lacks wisdom.

Obama 2nd Term ?

Telegraph: Reports on the prospects for President Obama to run for a second term in 2012. This blog has predicted that President Obama will either not run or go down to major defeat, think Walter Mondale when he lost to Ronald Reagan by 49 States and 59% of the vote. Lets be clear Obama is elite and arrogant, but he is not stupid, if he gets a Republican House and Senate his Domestic Agenda is dead in the water. In 1994 Bill Clinton faced a Republican Congress but still won in 1996 but Clinton was a great pragmatic politician, he went to the centre, even centre right to win in 1996. The Obama Presidency has one problem, its President Obama, lets be clear Obama is a clever and bright guy, he saw how great Reagan was, but he is not Reagan, the Gipper was also a great pragmatic politician, the Obama domestic and world view is so left of centre as to be in Cuba, and even Cuba is seeing the faults with left wing politics. If Obama was to really look at his style and policies of Government and see that he would have to change his whole psychological make up would fall apart, how do you tell your self that your spouting rubbish and even worse wrong rubbish. Thus the Obama political makeup will see that in 2012 he cant win or worse he will go down the toilet, thus without the love he will get out, he will blame the Republicans, the media, think a liberal Richard Nixon. That is the sad part about Obama, he could have been a contender, now he will be another Jimmy Carter.

Those University Days Part Two

BBC News: Reports that the Coalition Government has accepted the Browne Reports that states that the Universities should be free to charge what the want, the reform has the approval the Business Secretary and Lib Dem Vince Cable. If all the Lib Dems in the Coalition Government vote for this reform the Bill well get through the House, the Lib Dem leadership will have to be tough on its MPs, that includes former leaders. As stated in previous post on higher education the System is broken due to the left wing views for the previous Governments. The last Labour Government wanted 50% of school leavers to go to University, this is mad, not everyone should go to higher education, we still need people to take training in other fields that don’t need a degree. This is a big risk for the Lib Dems, at the next election one can see a election pact between the Lib Dems and Tories, not because they want it, but due to the election maths, if the Coalition keeps together they could bury Labour. Lets recall that the National Government was very popular and won elections in the 1930s. Labour only got a look in due to World War Two.
