If the Corporatocracy is happy enough with Mr Obama in place to do their bidding, Bill, I expect they WILL arrange for a suitably cretinous enough Republican challenger...one who is such an idiot that he or she can't possibly win the election! ;-)

That would be a handy way of continuing business as usual, while persuading people once again that they still have a real democracy.

Or...they could just as easily replace Obama with a Republican stooge, if they find the right one.

Either way, I think they'll be quite pleased with the final result, and they'll get what they want, regardless.

It's really a One-Party system, you know. It's like a two-headed dragon. You vote for one head or the other. Either way, you get the dragon when the voting is done. And the two heads just keep snarling at each other constantly to keep you distracted.
