Leonid, we are?? where do u get your data??
I think Obama staying power depends on who will be the Republican candidate. Knowing the current state of republican party i see a high probability of a totally loony candidate, and even Obama can beat someone like Palin.
I think someone like Pawlenty gets a nomination he would give Obama a run for his money.
You have to always remember, nigroes will vote 98-99% for Obama even if he joins the KKK tomorrow, so a Republican would have to win 60% or the white vote to win and it's not an ez accomplishment.
