At a certain point, the Democrats in the government will mutiny, and it will likely occur in the Fall of 2010, around election time. The leaders in the Party will be the ones to throw Obama over the side, just like the command group on the USS Caine were the ones to overthrow Capt Queeg.

I couldn’t care a whit whether Obama remains President, what worries me is how this episode damages the Republic; the confidence and trust of the citizens is what keeps this USA going, and that confidence is waning. We already mistrust and despise the workings of our government, yet the only remaining institution that has near-universal respect of the citizens is the Military. At some point, a military man with sterling reputation and high ambition will come along to beguile us away from the messy business of democracy and lead us to a government that is more ordered.
