Now that President Barack Obama has been in office, implementing a series of bad policies, for well over two years, it is understandable that many Americans are wondering who might be able to defeat him in 2012.
No really dominating potential Republican candidate has emerged, although Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Tim Pawlenty, Michele Bachmann, Ron Paul, Herman Cain and a few others are getting the most attention. Do you see anyone who might seriously challenge Obama?
Well, he is taking no chances. He’s looking ahead – and reportedly attracted an amazing $86 million in contributions, in just the past three months, toward his re-election effort.
If history is any indication, Obama knows that money is vital in presidential politics. He raised about $750 million for his 2008 campaign.
Now it is reported that his supporters are working with a goal of raising $1 billion for his re-election effort in 2012!
