Obama New Popularity Causes Democratic Party Affiliation To Surge
By Jason Easley


I think there is something related, but a bit broader going on here. The 2010 class of GOP governors are some of the most unpopular politicians in the country. Rick Scott in Florida is least popular politician and in America followed by John Kasich of Ohio, Scott Walker of Wisconsin, Tom Corbett of Pennsylvania and Rick Snyder of Michigan. These governors have ignored the will of the people in their states, and embarked on ideologically driven agenda that may have pushed voters back to the Democratic Party.

Polling has revealed that Scott, Walker, and Kasich have all helped Obama improve his approval ratings and or lead ahead of 2012 in their states. The correlation was obvious in Wisconsin and Florida. As the governors’ approval ratings went down in each state, Obama’s went up. When you add in the high disapproval rate of the Republican controlled House, you get an electorate that has quickly soured on the GOP.

The Republican move to the far right has alienated many American voters. As we inch closer to 2012 things may trending back towards Obama and the Democrats. Nothing has helped this trend more than the Republican support for privatizing Medicare. Their quest to destroy Medicare has given voters a crystal clear reason not to vote Republican.

For a party that has the stated goal of defeating Obama in 2012, the GOP is sure doing their best to get him reelected. The combination of Obama’s personal popularity and the GOP’s enraging of voters may be leading people back to the Democratic Party.

Its genuinely fun to watch Obama's puppets twitch and flail defending his wars, lies, and bumbling. If he wins I'm certain my taxes won't go up, nothing will change.

I prefer my country's warmongering be conducted by Republicans. The hypocrisy of the DNC is too repellant. I'll go pure GOP until Obama is out of office and his cronies are powerless then anti incumbent until real leaders emerge that aren't beholden to their Saudi Masters.

Even Obama's shills at the Washington Post/ABC have Obama losing to Romney 49 % to 46 % among registered voters. I trust them to skew the results in Obama's favor so its apt to be much much worse for Obama.

Romney won't beat Obama.

Know how I know?

You're not going to vote for Obama, and even you phrase it as "Obama losing to Romney" rather than "Romney beating Obama."

He's still setting the tone of this election. Until the GOP finds a candidate people want to vote for, instead of a warm body that allows people a box to tick that isn't "Obama" they won't stand a chance.

I really do hope they find a good candidate, because I can't stand the thought of Obama winning by default.

The sooner the better as far as I'm concerned. A complete economic melt down is about the only thing that will wake people up. We only have two choices, slow economic death descending into a 3rd world nation or an overnight collapse, which will allow us to immediately wipe the slate clean and start over.

However, since we will run someone, you need to only look at the latest polls to realize that the Osama Surge was only temporary. Besides Chris Matthews from hardball said it''s an historical fact that people vote based on the economy. When times are good they keep the same party in power, when times are bad they vote the other party in.

It's over for Obama.

These are liberal policies, not conservative. If Democrats had required 10% down payments like we used to do the mortgage crisis would have never happened.


In a bid to stem taxpayer losses for bad loans guaranteed by federal housing agencies Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac, Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn) proposed that borrowers be required to make a 5% down payment in order to qualify. His proposal was rejected 57-42 on a party-line vote because, as Senator Chris Dodd (D-Conn) explained, ". ..passage of such a requirement would restrict home ownership to only those who can afford it."

I can't add anything to this.

It worked too. Did you know that a large percentage of Obama's contributions were in odd amounts? Which would indicate that his donors were using foreign credit cards. They may have been American citizens, but they were financing his campaign with foreign money.

As President Obama prepares to tie a bow on U.S. combat operations in Iraq, Congressional Budget Office numbers show that the total cost of the eight-year war was less than the stimulus bill passed by the Democratic-led Congress in 2009.

There`s a collective make-pretend going on......."bush who?"


I don`t think cons realize that normal folks don`t have such a strong need to pretend.Normal average Americans don`t need such coping methods and arena`t defensive,anxious or hiding anything.



Neo-cons also think that average folks operate as they do.



But normal folks aren`t going forget bush fuck-ups and pretend they belong to President Obama,like neo-cons do.



Normal folks don`t have a need to,as cons do.


I imagine that when Obama wins in '12',tea-baggers and other neo-cons will go berserk and act out childishly.Much like the birther thing and other loony stuff ala Glen Beck.

And how much of that money spent on the war will be paid back?

of course it was, just poor people buying houses they shouldnt be allowed to have, it had nothing to do with the big banks and mortgage lenders and wall street being more corrupt than Bernie Madhoff .(did he work for Acorn?)
PS...It was Bush that was in bed with muslims, well until he tried to get them out of the country quicker than Vitter getting rid of lingering hookers in the early hours
but you chose to ignore that unfortunate piece of truth huh

It wasn't financing the loans to PEOPLE. It was taking those loans, bundling them into different levels of quality and then securitizing those newly created entities.

If the banks just held the loans WITHOUT trying to exploit them, then there wouldn't have been anything to implode.

Remember, Eliot Spitzer WARNED everyone about all this.

The operative phrase there is, "different levels of quality."

If there hadn't been so many questionable loans, there wouldn't have been anything to implode.
