Obama is going to be cutting it really close, but there should be noticeable improvements in the lives of voters before the 2010 elections. If things are still bad, it's going to be ironic to see the Republicans campaigning on fixing the very problems that they put into motion.
If you want to blame Bush, start with blaming Clinton as he inadvertedly started the financial/credit meltdown. Bush didn't help either, but people were ignorant as hell to believe Obama was a savior. He's already on track to trump Bush in terms of deficit spending, and it's not even close. He's been full of shit from day one.
