Good friend of mine in the Navy back in the late 1970’s was from Elkhart.

DId ANYONE in that “town hall” meeting ask Obama about the “new” energy policy that is sure to kill off the RV, Elkhart’s claim to fame?

I went through Elkhart about five years ago. Boy, that city was a run down cesspool. Looked like the west side of Chicago. No wonder Obama chose that city to try and drum up support for his plan.

Oh, don't be such a doom-and-gloomer. I'm sure Obama's Department of Brilliant Ideas will come up with a solar-powered rechargeable AA "green" battery that will eliminate the need for massive amounts of gasoline or diesel to power the RVs.

Hope and Change, man! ;-)

I am going to be kind and say that some of the people in Elkhart, Indiana are hurting and are looking at Obama as their savior. It is so, so sad.

Obamachev is going to invent an eco friendly electric RV with a range of 100 feet. It can be parked in your driveway, however it’s illegal around here.

The town of Elkhart may have to be sacrificed to be saved. Yet through their suffering....their pain, others may avoid the trap and honied words of the liberals as they lap their ears with the promise of a free lunch.

Well the main problem with Elkhart is that its whole reason for being is the RV industry. Plus, it is also known in the region as little Mexico, for the number of immigrants that flock there during harvest season.

It is a city that gets no attention unless a politician needs to keep their job or to take over someone else's.

If you will all remember, this is the city had the 10 commandments on city property until the ACLU sued them for the removal.

(not just people in Elkart who are idiots)

Gallup: 58% disapprove of GOP’s handling of stimulus

1:50 pm on February 9, 2009 by Allahpundit

Commenters have been kicking this around in Headlines, trying to figure out how the GOP can be taking a beating when big majorities favor more tax cuts in the bill and less spending. My guess: A combination of Hopenchange fee-vah among the public and the fear that something big needs to be done soon, in whatever form. CNN’s out this morning with its own new poll showing that slim majorities support the bill — 54 percent overall and 51 percent of independents — but 76 percent approve of Obama.

He got high marks on the economy in Gallup’s poll, too. If this were being sold as the Harry Reid/Nancy Pelosi stimulus package, which is what it is, it’d be dead on arrival, but put the Messiah on TV warning about the end times if he doesn’t get his way and it’s just enough to eke out a majority in favor. CBS and USA Today recently found 52 and 51 percent support for the bill, respectively; after tonight’s primetime sermon, expect that to bump up to 55 or more.
