he was the only democrat that successfully pulled away leftist 3rd party votes both times he ran.
i bet he'd have a good chance if he pays even more lip service than before.
Libs arent leftists by any metric. Ohbombya might have fooled a few genuine anti-imperialists the first time around with talk about closing Guantanimo and ending the occupation of Afghanistan, but he's a very known quantity now to anyone who has any credible M-L analysis.
Only the most baby-brained idpol-worshipping libs would want to breach their precious institutions of term-limited DeMocRACy just to take another 4-year nap. But I'd argue those same people have been driven too hysterical to ever be happy again with that false sense of stability.
I'm aware that liberals aren't leftist and my comment pointed out that leftist voted for Obama instead on leftist parties when he ran
