Well, at least one expert thinks that President Obama will win reelection easily because of the economy. That might strike you as counterintuitive, since the economy sucks and there’s not much that can be done about it now that teabaggers have veto power over any new stimulus. I’m skeptical of election projections that take no account of the candidates. Presidential elections do seem to be won by the more likable candidate. At least, it seems that way to me. Of course, there are elections like Bush-Dukakis where neither candidate is very cuddly. They tend to be won by the candidate with the best attack ads.
