This started with you (it seems to have been you) saying that four more years of Obama would be this country's "final downfall." Much as I wish it were otherwise, the only possibilities are Obama or the Rep. Judging from history, the Rep will be even worse. That's what I'm talking about.

Why did you suddenly forget to adjust for GDP? These aren't close to the largest adjusted deficits.
