In a potentially alarming trend for the White House, independent voters are deserting President Barack Obama nationally and especially in key swing states, recent polls suggest.

Good that Yahoo's main page has a more dire article. Hope & Change. Moron Independents who voted for the marxist clown are waking up.
This kind of worries me. Too much time for Obama and Emmanuel to pretend to be moderate again.
What about the dead voters? How are they tracking?
You mean especially those dead voters that received stimulus checks? ;p
The problem is they HAVE been pretending to be moderate. Actions speak louder than words. The American people pay better attention than everyone thinks, especially when it’s affecting their bottom line.

I do not think it will matter. Obama is getting hammered by people like me who are are not spending any money. I spend a little but nothing big. No one with any money or common sense has any confidence in this Kenyan clown.
Unless oil plummets to $20 a barrel (possible) then things will not improve. People who are unemployed are losing hope and those who are employed are scared sh**less.
Somebody once told me - PhD - that animals can take pain but they cannot take fear and people can take fear but they cannot take pain. I forget which is which but the public does not like fear or pain. Savage may have said it on his show or someone else I know told me that.
People ARE afraid and they are feeling pain. Seniors and people reaching retirement are screwed. If they voted for Obama - I would love to tell them to their face.
This is a wonderful opportunity for the Republicans. They need to get off their keisters NOW and start their search for the next Bob Dole.
What? Bob Dole? You are kidding right? McCain is our next Bob Dole except Bob Dole was far far more honorable and RINO-Lite. Amnesty Juan McCain is Democrat-Lite.
“Fool me once...”
It would be hilarious if it wasn’t so true. I love the “Hey, I don’t want to be in the dictator business.” What a liar he is.

Hey!
It’s not like the dead and illegals will not be voting (at least once) anymore!!!!!
The numbers are dropping because people are losing their jobs, having their hours cut, having raises put off or bonuses end while being told their taxes wil be raised. Pretending to be moderate or acting “cool” doesn’t impact in that type of situation.
Democrat’s own the Government. They’ll be blamed so long as this remains the condition.
Pocketbooks, national security and culture wars are game changers in politics. Right now the Economy is the game changer. It is hitting closest to home.
Bob Dole was a good man but he was an incredibly bad candidate and campaigner. Rush Limbaugh campaigned much harder for Bob Dole than Bob Dole did. Rush wanted Dole to win more than Dole did.
I remember it well. I was pulling my hair out listening to Rush (being frustrated with Dole) daily that last year, making awesome arguments and statements that should have been coming out of Dole’s mouth. Dole spent almost all of his time appearing like he didn’t even want to win. Only until the very few last days did he perk up a bit.
You do mean as in the Next Senate Leader right?? Not the Next RINO failed Presidential Candidate?
This kind of worries me. Too much time for Obama and Emmanuel to pretend to be moderate again.
If we were talking about Bill and Hillary I’d worry about that too, but Bam and the gang are too ideological, arrogant, not able to take a step back in the name of self-preservation.
This is the sort of time in which (historically) new political organizations rise up and sweep away the old ones.
