All words spoken by a man who has won the majority by charm, but has failed to deliver on his goods. Maybe his democrat defenders are sick of defending. If he would just be who he says he is, fixer of all things gone bad, then he better start uphis generator and get the nail gun out cause theres lots to be fixed.

Hmmm?
Does this officially mean racism is on the rise?
...even among Democrats?

Good question
I think an awakening is on the rise, some call it an "Aw sh!t, what have I done" moment.

When most people vote not based on policies but instead drool over cheap catch phrases repeated until your brain melts, celebrity like shiny shiny status and obama girl music videos don't expect anything less. Shame that the same thing will happen all over again in the next election. And again everyone will be wondering why a terrible president with terrible policies is in office. Rinse and repeat.

How ironic! While a full 46% of Americans STRONGLY DISAPPROVE! I find it hard to believe that a full 46% of all Americans are racist bigots - that would be a higher percentage than during slavery when over 50% of ALL Americans opposed slavery! But, the ardent Obama supporters will still tote out that tired old notion any time the Failure-In-Chief is criticized. This may be a very good time to begin researching on how to recall a Presidential election and start over. I'd like to think that the American people wouldn't be so stupid and naive a second time around - then again...

The high disapproval ratings among Democrats are over the current health care legislation. The progressives and the left wing of the party think it doesn't go far enough in terms of reform. They want a single-payer plan or at least a public option, both of which have been stripped from the bill in bi-partisan negotiations.

Neither the further left nor the further right are happy with the present legislation. Leftists are faulting the president for not advocating strongly enough for the leftist agenda.

Obama is proving to be more of a centrist than the progressives wanted. But now he's getting hits from all sides of the political spectrum because of his moderation.

This doesn't, however, mean that these Democrats are going to vote Republican or move significantly to the right come election time.

So don't get your hopes up.

Nope, the high disapproval ratings are because he is spending way too much time talking Health Care and not enough time addressing the high unemployment issues.
His priorities are not in order.

True, the Dems surely won't vote Repub, but the Independents just might.

So don't get your hopes up.

I promise not to get my hopes up if you promise not to call it a stolen election if and when the Dems lose their seats.
