          It's about time you got on board with the Obama-bashing.
          Wait... are you saying an unprecedented drop in support is a good thing?

            LOL. So you folks are saying that because Obama dropped from 75% to 55% approval since January he'll be at 35% approval in 10 months, right?

              I doubt it; anyone who is still in denial at this point is probably hopeless.

                  But if he is at 35%, then the poop hit the fan.

                      Messiah and WH lose again - to free press.

                      The Obama administration on Thursday failed in its attempt to manipulate other news networks into isolating and excluding Fox News, as Republicans on Capitol Hill stepped up their criticism of the hardball tactics employed by the White House.

                      The Obama administration on Thursday tried to make "pay czar" Kenneth Feinberg available for interviews to every member of the White House pool except Fox News. The pool is the five-network rotation that for decades has shared the costs and duties of daily coverage of the presidency.

                      But the Washington bureau chiefs of the five TV networks consulted and decided that none of their reporters would interview Feinberg unless Fox News was included.

                      The administration relented, making Feinberg available for all five pool members and Bloomberg TV.

                        Definately put this all in perspective.

                        Put Obama's numbers on the right timescale (say... the last five years), and the having his numbers in the low 50s is actually pretty good.

                        But even though the trend literally can't continue, (It would take a catastrophe to get the numbers into the mid-thirties... but hey, the neocons have dreams too, don't they? The hard rights must be salivating for a disaster right about now) the extreme righties on this board have a point in that Obama can't possibly live up the ridiculous expectations we've had of him, and he won't have a very easy time if he can't get it back up to the 60s or so.
                        If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me

                        BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!

                        At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

                          This is no place for reason. You're supposed to scream, "It's Bush's fault!"
                          It apparently matters more which party supports a policy, than what that policy actually is. Next thing, you'll have dems saying it's OK to censor the press, because Obama says it's OK. Wait...

                            Instead I'm screaming "Whatever, its still better than Bush!".

                              This is true - back in February, when he didn't have to answer for anything and was still riding the hope and change wave, his approval was flirting with 70%. And he still only managed 52% of the popular vote. If his approval is down around 50% in 2012, I don't see him taking the popular vote again. Electoral college mileage may vary...
                              If you don't change the world today, how can it be any better tomorrow?

                                Of course. That would mean it must be a bad thing.
