Why Obama’s poll numbers are plummeting
Economist: Obama is completely closed-minded when it comes to economics
Ed Schultz: Right now Mr. President your base thinks you’re nothing but a sellout
Yo, O. We need some deliverables here. Quickly too. But wait. All politicians are dropping fast in the polls. Not just Obama. So maybe we’re seeing an unprecedented populist upsurge against politicians in general, with Obama as most obvious target. He has been asking for it. All that changiness and hope he promised seems to be blowing in the wind while the White House plays kissee kissee with Wall Street.
People are hurting, losing jobs, home, pensions. It sickens and angers them to see bankers walk off with millions while too many others are suffering. The people will get their change, of that I have no doubt. The next several months will be interesting indeed.
I went on record yesterday at my place with fair notice: I will for the foreseeable future vote against any incumbent elected official.
When all the others get in will it be different?
If it brings real change, then yes.
