Quote du jour

“After just one term in office, French President Nicolas Sarkozy lost his re-election bid because he was unable to fix his nation’s economy. Or as Obama put it, ‘Uh-oh.’”
–Jimmy Fallon

  1. Fallon's a little optimistic. We still have plenty of stupid people in this country, so Obama could still easily get reelected.

    1. I 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.
