The best compliment he can get from the conservatives on here is silence.
I think Republicans had better get used to the idea of 8 years of Obama. All indications from economists on both sides of the political spectrum are we will be emerging from the recession in the 4th quarter of 2009 or 1st quarter of 2010. With the general lag of unemployment related to the end of a recession things should start blossoming again just in time for 2012. Any rising Republican star at that point would be far better served to wait until 2016 since Obama will get credit for taking us out of the recession whether or not his policies had anything to do with it and will almost certainly win re-election.
