Surely there are things on each side of that. I'm curious what they are for you.

From someone who voted for Bush, my idea of a successful next 4 years:
1. Progress of a disengagement plan from Iraq
2. Steady job growth (around 150-200 thousand/month--this would be just above the estimated average supply jobs to young people coming into the workforce)
3. A serious reduction in the federal deficit (by the way, this would be partly accomplished by an increase in tax revenue due to GDP growth, and there's nothing "voodoo" about it)
4. Solutions to the nuclear threats of Iran and N. Korea (probably wishful thinking)
My idea of an unsuccessful next 4 years:
1. No end in sight in Iraq. That's pretty much it. If we can't get the job done by then, it's time to cut and run.
