I had heard the idea that even if Obama got reelected, he wouldn't last long, as the Congress was set to impeach him for all of his "If Congress won't act, then I'll just go around them" unconstitutional bullcrap. Problem with that idea is, just like the SCOTUS confirmation process, an impeachment trial has to take place in the Senate, and they just took three more seats away from the Republicans there, so they are moving from 53/47 Dems to 56/44 Dems. I don't see getting enough Senate Dems to vote for conviction of Obama for unconstitutional exercises of power, even if those unconstitutional exercises of power usurped the Senate's power itself. They're just too partisan for that. They may not like it, but as long as the abuses are by their man, they'll grin through gritted teeth and ask for more.
