This is in need of repetition.
A majority of independent voters disapprove of how Barack Obama’s handling his job as president, according to a new national poll.
Fifty-three percent of independents questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Tuesday say they disapprove of how Obama’s handling his duties in the White House, with 43 percent in approval. That result marks the first time in a CNN poll that a majority of independents give the president’s performance a thumbs-down.
What is important here are the underlying details of the polling. It is not that they don’t like Obama. And it is not that independent voters don’t think Barack Obama is leading us.
It is that independent voters think Barack Obama is leading us in the wrong direction.

lurker9876 Wednesday, September 2nd at 10:23PM EST (link)I believe it is point of no return for Obama. And that there is nothing Obama can do to restore his numbers. Nobody trusts him, his administration, and the Dems.
Yes, We Can! --nt--

He says he’s dropping the Public Option but all he want is a Plan to go through and then Put his Evil Plan into action he has no plan to give up control . He is a Hitler and he has no intention of going forward for communisim he’s past Scoialisim and if my kids were in school I would keep them home the day OBAMAs indoctrition of the kids and start brain washing them and if they made them watch it when they went back to school and sent a paper home how you can help your Pres I would go whoop the Teacher s#$% .there is a time to sit and look at this crazy mess but now they are trying to brainwash our kids and grandkids.

I agree that whatever compromise Obama would sign would be a trojan horse BUT
JSobieski (Diary) Wednesday, September 2nd at 11:23PM EST (link)Hitler comparisons are rediculous at this point.
Many of us are like Hitler in that we have two arms, two legs, and a head.
Manyh of us are unlike Hitler in that we have not started a World War, initiated mass genocide, etc.
My rules of the road for primary season.
Rule #1: Vote for YOUR first choice in the primaries
Rule #2: Vote for the R in the general.
Rule #3: Don’t let anyone convince you to violate Rule #1 or Rule #2
Rule #4: When in a center-right argument, reaffirm Rules #1-#3–it will help us all to get along better.
Rule #5: If you are using the language of the left, you probably aren’t furthering conservativism
Rule #6: The priority is issues first, candidates second, and supporters third. Nobody is bigger than the issues. Conversely, if you spend your time focusing on supporters, you are wasting everyone’s time.
STOP THE MADNESS!
A reduction in the rate of spending increases is NOT a cut!
In-state tuition for illegals is NOT amnesty!
Requiring someone to pay their medical bills is NOT an individual mandate!
Reducing tax rates is NOT a tax increase!
Wait till Health care gets passed

Not a failure yet - it is a beginning.
nivlem (Diary) Wednesday, September 2nd at 11:33PM EST (link)We have already seen the damage of the last 7/8 months. We still have
9 to 10 months of damage to go. We have nothing to gain by touting toda’ys poll numbers.
Behind the scenes his “czars” are doing unbelievable damage. If we focus on the “polls” we are losing the mission.
Let us focus on the day to day liberties that are being taken away – not the
day to day polls.
As a Conservative blog, that is our stength. Let’s not get sucked in by the
day by day highs and lows as freedoms are stolen.
Well he's not as much of a failure now
Richard Mullins (Diary) Thursday, September 3rd at 12:04AM EST (link)as he will be later. I really think that having Ax as an adviser isn’t working so well. I’m happy of it every day and hope the 3 stooges keep doing what they are doing(giving us everything that you for the whole world to see).

Joe Biden is like a Decrepit Park owner with a Meth lab that happens to not only be a dealer but a user.
Let’s Bankrupt the Democratic paty. Make spend all the money to defend thier candidates.
Yes.
OccamsRazor (Diary) Thursday, September 3rd at 12:54AM EST (link)RedState.com can call him a miserable failure now.
The country as a whole will call him such in a few months, as his falling poll numbers hit rock bottom and the best he can ‘hope’ for is a dead cat bounce.
The history books on U.S. Presidents, might have a blurb which starts with ‘The worst President evah…”. Fortunately, it’ll be written in English versus Mandarin thanks to the American People.
Waterloo
jeepnpat1 (Diary) Thursday, September 3rd at 12:25PM EST (link)Yes, this is a slippery slope that he is continuing to go down.
There is a song titled Waterloo by Abba. Other songs by Abba which describe this presidency and the current congress are:
The Winner takes it all
SOS
Take a Chance on Me
Money Money Money
Maybe we should have these as our ringtones on phones at tea parties?!?!

Not A Failure Yet Until 2010
Ausonius (Diary) Thursday, September 3rd at 12:59PM EST (link)if CONSERVATIVE Republicans can take over the House.
As long as Dems are in charge there and the Senate, we can never rest. The possibility for a Trojan Horse success with NObama is always there.
Complacency that he is a failure, or will be a failure, is not warranted until he is sent packing to meditate on his sins with the nickname “Barry One-Term Obama.”
Ausonius: 310-395 A.D. Teacher, Poet, Consul, General, Farmer.
Personal Tutor to the future St. Paulinus of Nola and to young Gratian, heir to the throne during the turbulent final years of the Western Roman Empire. When his former student Gratian was assassinated, Ausonius threw up his hands and retired to his farm in Gaul. Rome was captured by barbarians 14 years after his death.
