That's a really interesting question. I think the answer would still be yes, but by a smaller margin. Democrats did not elect Obama, and Republicans did not elect Bush. The independents who were sick of 8 years of Clinton elected Bush, and those same people elected Obama after 8 years of Bush.
Both parties will always have their base, but the voters in the middle who vote on issues will decide who wins. I don't think that those people have yet decided that a continuation of the policies of the Bush administration (by a guy who admitted that he didn't know much about economics) would be better than the poor decisions/policies of Obamas.
We will see in a couple of years.
