From the SJ Mercury:
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!By declaring the Iraq War over, President Barack Obama scored what his allies see as a fourth big foreign policy success in six months, starting with Osama bin Laden’s killing.
But in his re-election bid, these events might play a discouragingly small role even if they burnish his eventual place in history.
Voters tend to focus heavily on domestic issues, especially in times of high unemployment. That will limit Obama’s campaign options.
His supporters are seeking ways to make the most of his foreign policy accomplishments. One approach is to contrast them with Congress’ partisan-driven gridlock on taxes, the deficit and other domestic issues.
