It's a shame they didn't realize this before last November so he never could begin to destroy the country.

I'd rather have a moron that is kind of a capitalist than the lying Marxist bastard who got elected.

McCain and Obama varieties of fruit from the same tree; the only difference is Obama admits his socialistic instincts, whereas McCain lies about his and calls them capitalistic. McCain made Carter look competent and that's almost impossible to achieve.

New numbers from Rasmussen. Lowest approval index yet (-15); tied for lowest approval rating (45%). Also hit 48% in Gallup yesterday.

Also, health care plan is 56-38% against.

Obama--smart guy, good at reading speeches, good campaigner.

Not clear that he is actually good at governing and making decisions.

May have bought his own press, overstepped his "mandate."

Woo-hoo! Stubborn and proud GOP'ers can now start credibly blaming the other guy for at least 10 percent! Let's have a tea party!

Sorry, I don't understand this question. Which percentage are you referring to?
