    Obama may win the election next year. But in the great sweep of history he can't save America. There is only one thing for sure, i.e., the divisions among the American peoples will grow ever deeper. Obama is indeed the agent of change.

    Dated info.

    Corroborating evidence from CNN about Obama's drop in approval:
    And that is just Dems...

    Just for comparison, Gallup says on August 6 2003 (at the same point in the Presidency as Obama is now) Bush was at 60%.

    RCP's average is conducted weekly & bi-weekly... most recently the 10th of August 2011. See for yourself.

    Which means people favor a republican, but not the republicans running... pointless if it can't be applied, unless the letter R plans on running for President. Perhaps someone should go to Sesame St. and get a hold of R.

    Subjective, yet I'd say no... where others would disagree. The beauty of polling, Albert.

    Those on the receiving end of the redistribution of income are presumably satisfied with Obama's presidency.

    But imo Obama has sown the wind. The only thing Obama has succeeded in doing imo is radicalizing the right. I used to be Yankee Doodle Dandy. Now I am John Brown as it were.

    Very early... which would mean threads on polls mean _______. Since it's your thread, I'll let you fill that in.

    In terms of the 2012 it is very early. But for America it's later than you think. It doesn't matter who captains the Titanic.

    Assume Obama wins reelection. Do you also think he is likely to have complete control of the House and Senate like he did in 2009 and 2010? That is unlikely. Without complete control of both House and Senate by the Left it is possible for us to keep the country paralyzed politically.

    Only if you don't acknowledge the non-stop partisan warfare from day 1 waged against him no matter the cost to the nation, and that his term started off in a deep stink hole named after Bush.
