Is the bloom off the Øbama rose? This is the third election he's lent his support to that has gone south:
Not only is Øbama's support akin to the kiss-of-death, but his approval rating is south of 50% for the first time in his presidency. He's not winning over any Republicans with talk of "We won"; he's not ingratiating himself with the left over the wars in Iraq or Afghanistan; he's finding out that international relations require more than simply showing up.
Democrats should be nervous about November. The figurehead of the party has lost his coattails; Massachusetts - one of the very bluest states out there - just filled Ted Kennedy's seat with a "far right teabagger"; people are sick and tired of backroom deals that involve billions of their hard-earned tax dollars going to buy votes on contentious legislation. If the American people decide they want two-party rule again, this November might look like 1994 all over again.
Here's hoping that Scott Brown is no Newt Gingrich, though.
That is all.

I am proud of you little MA buggers today, let me tell ya! I hereby promise to no longer refer to you as Massholes. Unless you're behind a steering wheel, of course. ;-)

Don't forget the Olympics! Sure it's not a US political election, but it's a failure worth noting.
You apparently are somewhat happy and excited about your victory as is the rest of the Country!! From the "other" libtarded State Minnesotah!!!
GOOD JOB!!
* Deeds in VA
* Corzine in NJ
* Coakley in MA
Add a first round rejection by the International Olympic Committee AND no agreement on Glow-Bull Warming.
Heck, even the Washington Post is reporting on "no coat-tails."
BTW, Happy First Anniversary Mr. President. Enjoy your gift.
Hopefully Reid, Pelosi and Obama ignore it all and keep on rolling the same way.
Come November, it’s Armageddon, Ragnarök, and the Apocalypse for Democrats.
Actually jay, as shown here: http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/obama_administration/obama_approval_index_history
His approval rating has been negative every single day since 6/30/09. His ovarall approval has been 50% or higher for 153 out of the last 173 days.
Notice that this is rasmussen, a very well known site not some "fringe" site as the libs try to deem us.
That should say DISapproval rating. I hate when i miss a part of a word.
We're hearing about some uncertainty about Boxer in CA now...
I want Barny Frank GONE!!
Seeing his smarmy liveshots from all the election hoopla, as well as all the illegal and corrupt shit he's gotten away with over the years, and his creepy toothless mumble.
I'm totally sick of his shit!
