Art Laffer Calls Obama ‘Very Poor President’, Expects Defeat in ‘12

Big Government  "Well Arthur Laffer the famed economist who served as economic adviser under Reagan, tells me the Gipper would go after burdensome regulations to stimulate the economy, starting with President Barack Obama’s health care plan.
"Laffer also says Americans should applaud Obama’s life story but reject his policies."


The Very, Very Bad President  "It is nowadays said by many that Barack Obama is the worst president in American history. If this is so, President Obama will have eclipsed a mark that most observers believed would stand unchallenged until the final trumpet: The abysmal record of James Earl “Jimmy” Carter.
"One of the reasons, I believe, that so many younger voters supported Obama in 2008 is that no one under 30 could remember how genuinely awful the Carter presidency was, nor could they recognize the similarities between the unbounded Hope inspired by the vague promises of the Democrats’ 2008 candidate and the tremendous expectations for national redemption that were invested in the 1976 Democratic candidate."

Here is this line from a song in Carter's campaign ad: "Once and for all why not the best?".   Then, of course there was Carter's promise of "Change"
