I dunno, I don't get it either. "Dull but moderately effective" seems pretty damn good after the previous 4 years. Yeah, it would be nice to have an inspiring leader that brings the country together, but there's no way I'd give up "dull but moderately effective" for the slim chance that there's an inspiring leader out there and that they could get elected, and be effective in office.
So... yeah. I have trouble taking people who don't want him to re-run seriously. 81 million people voted for him, hoping he'd be better than the other guy. So hopefully they'll turn up again now that they know they were right!
