I'll say the Republican party is lucky that the country was SO fucked up from the end of Bush's term that it would have been impossible to have a strong turnaround regardless of who was president. Reason being that if the Obama-led country made a strong turnaround and everything was peachy, they'd have absolutely nothing. As it is, thanks to the 2010 midterms and things still not being great in 2012 leading to a continued Republican lead in the House, they're clinging to scraps. They're going to have to block everything Obama et al want to do to have any chance of continuing to have those scraps in 2016. That or they need to find a Republican version of Clinton that people can really get behind, which I highly doubt will happen.
It's really become a party of old people and loons. The irony there is you'd think they'd give a shit about the old people that vote for them considering that, but newp - paying for old people's prescriptions is socialist.
