New York Times Declares Obama a One Term President

I thought they would wait until after the inauguration to declare him a one term President like this.

If his stimulus plan "doesn’t work out, he may very well be a one-term president,” said Jeff Zeleny, who covered Obama’s campaign. “It’s hard to imagine that he could be reelected if the economy’s in the exact same position four years from now.”

I would actually be harder to imagine that the economy will be in the *exact same position* 4 years from now no matter what Obama does. I would agree that if Obama does exactly nothing for 4 years then he won't be reelected. I do know, however, that Obama and his aides are a lot smarter than that.
