wrong, the Republians aren't showcasing their anti-Obama campaigns very heavily yet either, because they are busy burying eachother. I'm pretty sure that Obama is still losing in polls against "generic republican" and please don't insult everyone's intelligence by saying that Obama isn't in "campaign mode"....he hasn't left that mode in 10 years |

While I will not be as abrasive as Aaron, I will echo his sentiments. A president sitting this close to general elections with an approval rating of 46% is not a sure thing for returning to the White House by any stretch. This will heat up and we will end yet another election 49% to 51%. The winner has not been decided yet by a long shot. |

Agreed. Sometimes I wonder if Brian even follows politics. To say that Obama hasn't even started his campaign is laughable at best. Hell, he just used the SOTU speech as a campaign speech THIS WEEK. I knew people in the Northeast tend to lean left but Brian leans so far I'm surprised he can keep his balance. |

Regarding drug legalization, I will go along with it on two conditions: 1) We allow addicts to fail, and if they die, they die. 2) We adopt very strict anti-DUI laws. The second conviction means you never drive a motorized vehicle again. |

I have no problem at all with #2. #1, I agree with to a lesser extent. Not sure years of prison is cheaper than rehab. |

I'm ok with an attempt at rehab. However, to be successful I think the patient needs to know that the system will only work with them for a limited time, and at some point tough love will be administered. |

If you can't carry your own base, you can't win. There's no way to spin 9%. |

And that's a huge problem....they are now starting to expose their own candidates without democrats lifting a finger. Newt Gingrich -- Mr. 'I won't go negative' -- is now the most negative of all candidates and is trying to paint Romney as a fake conservative. That's all well and good, but all it does is either produce a weakened Romney as the primary winner or a Gingrich who simply stands an incredibly small chance of winning the national election. |

Rick Santorum: "This race is just starting. It's a three-man race," Santorum insists. "We're going to be in this race for the long term." Ummm......let's see....Romney, Gingrich, Paul. Yep, I guess he's right. |
