Sure, the yellow dog democrats will vote for him, they'd vote for a dead guy for president as long as that "d" is by the name, but the youth vote in particular is going to diminish IMO and that was Obama's meal ticket. But those same voters in 2008 don't have jobs, see high gas prices, higher food prices, and there's Obama taking numerous vacations and Michelle with her $500 pairs of shoes. Not a good way to win fans who haven't yet been brainwashed into zombie democrat voters.

Swing and a miss.
