Thumbnail image for Inevitable Fall of a Statist
By 11 1st, 2012

Don’t believe for a minute that Obama lost the election because of a poor performance in the first debate with Mitt Romney. I can make the case that it has been inevitable for almost four years that Obama would never get re-elected. You only need to remember how he got ...
