But, you never know. Obama's approval rating continues to drop and unless he stops any further effort on health care and does something to reduce the deficit, his numbers will continue to drop.

Obama's RCP average approval rating his an all time low today. His presidency has been one long downward trend. BTW, did you see Barbara Boxer with notes written on her hand?

The Democrats thought that they had the rest of the year to pass the bill. Of course, the election in Mass. put an end to that plan. I still have a big smile when I think about it. There couldn't be a better example of the old adage that the cure for the ills of democracy is more democracy.

Maybe, if this were "normal". JMHO, orf course, but IMHO the US public is *REALLY* ticked off with big govt and big govt spending. It's what sunk the GOP in 2006. If you look at spending in 2006 and compare it to now? People are really scared that the govt is destroying the economy. Now if the dems would say, for example, the economy is sufficiently recovered that we do not have to spend the 500 billion of the stimulus that is unspent, and not propose any other sort of govt spending program, they would be OK, but as we all know, they won't do this. Thus even people like Fiengold, who should be golden, and Gillibrand, who should be OK, are are on the table, and if they go, the dems could lose a lot more than 7 in the senate, and the house could be a bloodbath. IMHO what the dems don't get is the high degree to which people are downright scared in response to govt spending. And no, most Americans don't want to wind up lining up for a job on an FDR era road crew...well, except for Carbon and Clarkie...but then like me, they aren't Americans, are they? |
