Bush closes the gap

Public Policy Polling:

Perhaps the greatest measure of Obama's declining support is that just 50% of voters now say they prefer having him as President to George W. Bush, with 44% saying they'd rather have his predecessor. Given the horrendous approval ratings Bush showed during his final term that's somewhat of a surprise and an indication that voters are increasingly placing the blame on Obama for the country's difficulties instead of giving him space because of the tough situation he inherited. The closeness in the Obama/Bush numbers also has implications for the 2010 elections. Using the Bush card may not be particularly effective for Democrats anymore, which is good news generally for Republicans and especially ones like Rob Portman who are running for office and have close ties to the former President.

Re: SHOCK POLL: 44% Want Bush Back Over Obama.

All partisanship aside, Obama was pretty much unelectable the moment he was sworn into office because there was no way he was going to live up to his own ridiculous hype.

In life, sports and politics, you lose if you set the bar too high. Obama is a victim of his own hopeychangey.

Reagan was the opposite. All the Ivy Leaguers thought he was a dunce, so all Reagan had to do was bring a little sanity back to Washington (compared to the Carter disaster) and the people loved him.

Ditto for Bush.

And ditto for -- surprise! -- Sarah Palin. Sarah has all the pseudo-intellectuals right where she wants them. Her stock can't help but rise. :thumbup1

Digest this excerpt from:
http://www.americanthinker.com/prin...thinker.com/2010/06/americas_predicament.html

Many people thought Barack Obama would save America from its troubles. Unfortunately, they were wrong. When it comes to America's finances, the president is doing exactly the wrong thing. We are headed toward an abyss, and instead of braking, he has slammed down the accelerator. He is behaving like a perfect madman. And like Emperor Nero, Barack fiddles while the Treasury burns.

Paul McCartney thinks Obama is a very smart man. The president, however, does not seem to realize that one cannot borrow his way out of debt. Not even the American federal government can do that. The American government has more leeway than the rest, because the dollar is the world's reserve currency. But no one can defy the laws of finance forever. When the day of reckoning finally arrives, the dollar will collapse.

It would be wrong to think that America's debt problem has been caused by Obama. Obama is not the root cause. He is merely a symptom. He could not do what he is doing if the ground had not been prepared beforehand. This was done by the decades of fiscal recklessness. The problem began long before Barry Soetoro started attending a madrassah in Indonesia.

Both parties are responsible. Do you still remember who started us down the never-ending road to bailoutville? That president even called himself a conservative. He was a good man, but he left a mess behind. He went about his saving work in the wrong way. He should never have tried to save capitalism from itself. Instead, he should have tried to save capitalism from government.

Like Bush, Obama does not mean any harm. He is convinced that what he is doing is good and right. He is just badly misguided -- too bad so many people fell for his pretty words. They thought Barack was a great leader, and they said he would lead us toward better days. Those prophets were wrong. Barack is leading us toward disaster. John McCain, however, would not have done much better; he would also be bailing out right and left. We have a problem in this country: Neither of the two major parties is any good.

Maybe people will look back in time and realize we needed Obama to wake people up to not to take what made our Country great for granted
