I think it's disengenuous to say "we'll still be in Iraq". Last time I checked, the timetable has serious US troop movements out of Iraq in 2011. That's well before his presidency would be over even if he DOESN'T get re-elected. Add that to this:

This is not to suggest that I unreservedly support Obama. I didn't vote for him, and it's unlikely I'll vote for him in 2012. But I think that even in his first 7-8 months, he's been a good president.
