lame duck or juggernaut?

President Barack Obama now begins his second term in office. By constitutional mandate (specifically, the 22nd Amendment), there will be no third term. Does this make Obama a lame duck, or does it make him a nothing-to-lose juggernaut? The Democrats control the Senate; the Republicans control the House of Representatives. This term, I expect plenty of deadlock and scandal. Second terms are usually about scandal.

    I'm going to go with juggernaut, simply because I like imagining Obama going around saying, "I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!"
