Voters for the first time are blaming President Obama nearly as much as President Bush for the country’s continuing economic problems.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 49% still blame the economic situation on the recession that began under Bush. But 45% now say the nation’s economic problems are caused more by Obama’s policies.
Just a month ago, 55% pointed the finger at Bush, while only 37% said the policies Obama has put in place since taking office were at fault. These findings had remained largely unchanged since May.
Sixty-two percent (62%) now trust their own judgment more than the president’s when it comes to the economic issues facing the nation, up three points from a month ago and up 13 points from early February. Twenty-seven percent (27%) trust Obama’s economic judgment more, and 11% are not sure.

While I wish no ill toward folks here, I relish the thought of the unemployment rate increasing in October, only because it damages the democrats and Obama. The higher the better, especially as it will hit democrat voters harder than those who opposed Obama.
“Do you think just a little bit that Jorge pushing home ownership for all and no down payments might have just a little, little bit to do with it. You can look up the deal he and Mel made with Fannie, to make 5.5 million loans if you wish to state the true facts.”
