34 Percent of the country are neocon or worse

Majority Rates Obama Same or Worse Compared With Bush:

This is how I would headline this latest offering from the sages at Gallup. 34 percent think Bush was better than Obama. In 2012 we will see how much or little reason can prevail among us all. Anyone who thinks we can have another face off on keeping the government going without creating a worse economic situation is probably part of the 34 percent.

The people understand Obama better than the GOP ever did

Gallup Pollster: Obama's Ratings Higher Than You'd Expect | TPMDC: "That's according to Gallup Editor In Chief Frank Newport, who spoke to reporters Tuesday at a breakfast meeting sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor. Newport says he's crunched the numbers as far back as they go in Gallup's polling archive and found that no one's done as well as Obama when the public is as unhappy with the economy." Right. He is Kevlar. Because the people now know exactly what the problem is and it is not the President. It is the noxious GOP and its failure to step up to the Patriotism bar.

Neither Dems nor GOP get high ratings in Congress

Amid Debt Clash, Approval of Parties in Congress Low but Steady: "Congressional Democrats' slightly higher current job approval rating compared with the GOP's stems from the higher percentage of Democrats than of Republicans approving of their own party's job performance, 73% vs. 57%." But a 20 percent gap isn't so bad. I doubt the GOP knows or much cares.
