The general nature of the business cycle suggests that the economy will be growing at a healthy rate in 2012. Presidents running for reelection with a strong economy rarely lose.

The last two presidents to only serve one term were running for reelection during a recession.
If Barrack loses it will be because the Democrats went power hungry with the zero checks and balances for the first 2 years so no matter what Hillary can't run in 2012 and win. Obama is the incumbent to start with.

If its MCain he will be 4 years older and be the president of economy that will be rough on the country for his first couple years. No way at 76/77 he gets a 2nd term.
