#2 The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 37% of the nations voters now Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Thirty-one percent (31%) now Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of +6, his lowest rating to date ... Currently, the baseline targets for the adult population are 41.1% Democrats, 33.0% Republicans, and 25.9% unaffiliated.

A Presidential Approval Index rating from +27 to +6 in only 7 weeks. Can't wait for the next 200 weeks.

MSNBC (aka Obama is the One) 58% gave him an F
CNN (WE aren't biased) 59% Good or Excellent

odd.

#4 odd

losing one's job, losing one's house,...

#5 I trace them to a central trait of the president's character: he's not really an in-your-face guy.

He's left that to his underlings, hired guns, sycophants and the media.

But I repeat myself.
