Free Beacon Election Forecast: 51.7% Chance Obama Resigns After the Midterms





The Free Beacon election team would like to introduce our readers to KATE, our kinetic analytics technology emulator. KATE operates an advance forecasting model that not only analyzes millions of conventional data points, but also incorporates a number of nontraditional methods to capture “ghost data” that the human brain is incapable of understanding.

KATE believes there is a 51.7 percent chance that President Obama will resign after the midterm elections. The president’s NIXON Index (Nonchalance In eXcess Of Nobility) clocks in at an astonishing 31 (out of 37). He pals around with an average of 1.2 celebrities every day, and longs to attend more dinner parties with “interesting Italians.” Obama’s top aides are making cameos on “The Good Wife” and “Sesame Street.” Meanwhile, Next President Joe Biden is bidin’ his time hosting marathons of “Law & Order SVU.”

Obama seemed to confirm KATE’s predication in remarks at a DNC fundraiser earlier this week [emphasis added]:


I’ve run my last campaign. Michelle is deeply grateful. (Laughter.) But the issues I’m fighting for, the issues that I will continue to fight for even after I leave this office, those issues are at stake. And we’ve got to be willing to fight for them.

The good news for Democrats is that having Biden assume the presidency now would preclude the need for a drawn out Democratic primary in 2016, which he would be the overwhelming favorite to win anyway.
 
no memeber of Congress should work with him

Like they've been doing all along?

TIME just published “The Party of No,” an article adapted from my new book, The New New Deal: The Hidden Story of Change in the Obama Era. It reveals some of my reporting on the Republican plot to obstruct President Obama before he even took office, including secret meetings led by House GOP whip Eric Cantor (in December 2008) and Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell (in early January 2009) in which they laid out their daring (though cynical and political) no-honeymoon strategy of all-out resistance to a popular President-elect during an economic emergency. “If he was for it,” former Ohio Senator George Voinovich explained, “we had to be against it.” The excerpt includes a special bonus nugget of Mitt Romney dissing the Tea Party.

But as we say in the sales world: There’s more! I’m going to be blogging some of the news and larger themes from the book here at TIME.com, and I’ll kick it off with more scenes from the early days of the Republican strategy of No. Read on to hear what Joe Biden’s sources in the Senate GOP were telling him, some candid pillow talk between a Republican staffer and an Obama aide, and a top Republican admitting his party didn’t want to “play.” I’ll start with a scene I consider a turning point in the Obama era, when the new President went to the Hill to extend his hand and the GOP spurned it.
