Not sure where you got your education but I'd ask for my money back!

Reagan and Clinton had lower approval ratings than Obama at the same point in office and were re-elected.

Bush Sr. had much higher approval ratings than Obama at the same point in office and was not.

That doesn't require a lot of education to discover, just five minutes or so on the Internet.

ETA: Sorry, I must've breezed by Smash255's post, which pretty much said the same thing.

Dude, thats my line. I think I used it against you months ago. If it wasn't you, then I apologize. Either way, thats my line. I know my snarkiness.

Have a good night though.

It wasn't me, but I'm perfectly willing to share the line, if that isn't too communistic

No different from the undermining done by the Democrats, moveon.org, media matters, The N.Y. Times, The L.A. Times, etc during the Bush years.

The people who voted for Obama in 2008 are not going to vote for a Caribou-Barbie backed candidate. They will more than likely vote for the Democratic Party nominee, who for now we will assume to be Obama. The Democrat base will be out in full force come 2012, especially if the economy is going well.

Says the man who ignores the inherited trillion dollar structural deficit, the two wars, and the greatest economic decline since the Great Depression which all occured after January 21st of 2009 right?

Let's not go down this road please...

It makes little or no difference whether a Democrat or Republican in is the white house.

The secret deals will continue, the wars will continue, the machine will keep pushing along all the same.

Wake up.
