#1  Chucky "Sleazy" Schumer rehearses talking points... Fixed it for you.

#2  The Donks' strategy is to blame/demonize the Tea Party as its been doing so since its start. Someone has been in the echo chamber too long. How'd that work for them last November? In reality the Donks blame the American people for refusing to surrender to their economically unsustainable redistributionist model.

Federal agencies shut up about shutdown
President Obama says a government shutdown would have severe consequences for the American people — but his White House is telling agencies not to talk about what those consequences are.

E-mails from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) last month told agencies that statements to Congress "should not state or imply what functions would or would not be continued in the event of a funding gap."

"Agencies should not be previewing shutdown plans — that is, policy and operational decisions — in any way," it added. Agencies were ordered to clear any responses to questions about shutdown plans with OMB.

Obama most polarizing first year president

#1  I think it is a combination of the radicalization of the democrats, the radical progressive policies of this president, and the fact he is a complete boob.

#2  And Darth hits the trifecta!

#3  Hidden in the numbers is the fact that GW Bush got ~50% among democrats. While the elites and media HATED him, the rank and file dems weren't nearly as hateful.

#4  This analysis is way off base. The growing level of disapproval of the other party's candidate is reflective of the breakdown in the social consensus about the blue social model and the progressive New Deal that spawned it. More and more people are realizing the emperor has not clothes and more and more politicians are willing to say so. This will continue until there is a major change in the social model the country operates under. Unfortunately I don't expect that to happen until after some event shakes everyone out of their me, me, me stupor. My current favorite is the collapse of the dollar and resulting hyperinflation. Especially if Barry is re-elected.
