Most people still blame Bush for the economic problems. The polling continues to show the same results.

Until the Republicans change the entire Premise by showing the American People that all these problems started the day that Pelosi and Reid took over in JANUARY 2007, the Democrats can ride the Blame Bush bus all the way to the polls.

The idea that Obummer still has an approval rating in the middle 40’s would normally amaze me, but it only proves that the public is still swayed by the Democrat blame Bush mantra. That has to change before the November elections or things will go from bad to worse for the Conservative movement.

I cannot join the “wait until November” crowd simply because I have lost faith in the intelligence of the Electorate. The Liberalism infesting the Media has shown its handiwork and the Country is suffering for it.

Nailed it.

Wouldn't it be grand if the geniuses at the RNC could produce commercials that say something like "In January 2007, the Democrats took control of congress. Unemployment had not been above 5% for X years. In November 2008, unemployment was 9% and Democrats blamed Bush. Obama was elected, and Democrats retained complete control of congress. Since then we've spent Y trillion dollars on stimulus and unemployment is at 10%." Finish with Biden's voice saying we will never recover those jobs.

They need to start running ads like that nationally NOW, constantly, through November. It needs to be pounded into people's heads. And, they can't just run these things on CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC. Quit preaching to people who already made up their dman mind. This needs to be on during sports, sitcoms, dramas, shows for TEENs, etc.

but it only proves that the public is still swayed by the Democrat blame Bush mantra.

1) If an economy such as ours takes about 18 months to 2 years to recover when everything is done right to recover, then Obama and Company are going to be fighting a uphill battle in 2012.
2) The "Blame Bush" mantra will grow more tiresome as the weeks and months pass with no viable recovery.
3) When another crisis appears and Obama bungles that, more than likely, the "Blame Bush" mantra just will not have weight.
