It looks like George doesn't have it. He's already hedging and looking for a "good loss" which is how he so pusillanimously characterizes the Goldwater defeat. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he lose to Lyndon Johnson? Is that a good loss? Didn't Johnson usher in his "Great Society" programs that are still crushing our economy today? Didn't he really take FDR's disasterous policies to the next level of ridiculousness?
Is it just me or is this President and this congress extremely weak and vulnerable? Shouldn't we strike while the iron is hot? There is no reason conservatives can't take both.
Not to mention the fact that Will paints a pretty rosy picture of how the republicans would automatically make Obama a lame duck president if they controlled congress. Is he really so ignorant of history that he forgets just a few years ago when RINO republicans led by the senior senator from Arizona created the "Gang of 13"? A republican controlled congress doesn't mean a CONSERVATIVE controlled congress. There's a difference George and you embarrass yourself with that idiotic mistake.

Not to mention, very little of the damage Obama has done has passed through Congress. Obamacare aside.
My friends I will be there for you when Obama is re-elected. I hope you don't go shoot up a post office or something. I recall that during the Reagan years George Will said that Americans are conservative and what they want to conserve is the New Deal. The new non-Conservative radical rightists want to undo Social Security and the minimum wage and child labor laws.
What about the damage that the TeaPublican House members have wrought? I think that might outweight the bulk of Obama's mis-steps. (And, as I'm sure you are not surprise, I think the Affordable Care Act is not perfect, but it's better than anything the Republicans have come up with ... Oh. Wait. They are entirely void of ideas on how to handle the healthcare issue.
