In yet another reminder of the thinning of MSM influence, Obama's "net-stronglys" dropped a point.

The only poll that counts is the "real" poll that shows him at 55-44, or UP a point since yesterday. It's misleading and demoralizing to continue trying to make our side believe that he is less popular than he is.
No matter how this is spun, the passage of Waxman-Markey is completely disastrous. Elections have consequences. And this is one of them. There is a lot more and a lot worse to follow. Just wait until the national healthcare legislation emerges later this summer. This is what happens when a radical Marxist and a Democrat Congress are elected. Only horrible legislation will emerge from Washington for the time being. Our only hope to stop all this rests with taking back Congress next year. Right now BHO has a blank check to do pretty much whatever he wants.
Actually, I believe the MSM has propped him up as being more popular than he really is.
These polls about how people give him a higher approval rating personally than they do for his policies is the way they do it.
I would figure that when the MSM does this polling, maybe people answer positive to him personally for fear of being considered a racist.
I am not saying that there are not people who really like his BS, but I find this high popularity to be declining. In politics, the person and their policy can’t be separated for long.
