Obama - Europe a creek

Blue Virginia has his predictions for 2012, and it's downhill from number one.
1. The U.S. economy continues to recover, in part as Europe avoids meltdown. The unemployment rate drops below 8% by election day 2012. Obama's reelection depends on Europe getting its' act together? Starting packing, Democrats, and Republicans can already start planning for inaugural parties.
As long as Europe's future remains shaky, unemployment will be high. Business will be cautious in investing, due to the uncertainty of government's slowing down the spending.
If the United States can't slow government spending, Europe can't. And when the wallet's empty, it's empty.
And that kind of world economy will highlight Romney's strength.
For my prediction, Obama loses Virginia and wins just 10 states in November.
