Fallon's a little optimistic. We still have plenty of stupid people in this country, so Obama could still easily get reelected.
ReplyDeleteI don't think Fallon was saying he wouldn't get re-elected, I think he was just pointing out a very strong parallel. But, you're right about not underestimating the ability of people to vote against their own economic self interest.
