People were saying the same thing about Bush in 2004.
The GOP has some good people to work with but there's a good chance the party will rip itself apart rather then appeal to the middle. A number of the best candidates are an election cycle away from being ready.
I think if the economy continues to slowly improve and none of the foreign situations deteriorate Obama has a decent chance at re-election. Libya is certainly a wild card that could help/hurt considerably.
If the trend come election season isn't down, independent voters are going to give Obama a lot of slack for enduring a very challenging presidency.
