So in other words, Obama's hovering in the low 40s is the same territory that Ronald Reagan saw during his third year in office. Reagan wasn't able to instantly clean Carter's messes, so by year three, the public grew impatient. Shocking.

Until Obaman's approval rating is at zero, it's not low enough.
I fear Obama may be re-elected yet I for the life of me can't see how he has any approval rating. His handling of health care is wrong. His handling of the mortgage mess was made worse by him. His handling of the economy is completely wrong. So he looks good when dining with Europeans. Big deal.

But hey, it's not all bad. He's back up to 40% overall approval. Just like Reagan!

It's not a bad analogy either. Their approval ratings have had an uncanny correlation thus far (except that Obama has generally outperformed Reagan to date). Reagan's low was 35%. I'm pretty sure Obama won't win 49 states, but Republicans sure are doing their best to put up a candidate even worse than Mondale. |

--Congress is currently on a five week vacation. So "return to Washington [and] work with" who, exactly? --Mitt Romney hasn't had a job in three years. Since his 2008 failed campaign, he's been on vacation. --Obama has spent 61 days on vacation since taking office. After 31 months, Reagan had taken 112 days, and GWB had 180 days. --Mitt also seems unaware that Presidents on vacation are really not on vacation. He will still spend a fair amount of time on the phone and dealing with state leaders. If Mitt truly is unaware of this, then maybe he was an even bigger slacker as governor than previously thought. What's disturbing though is how truly stupid Mitt's sheep really are, who soak up and believe such elementary propaganda. |

This afternoon, Obama conferenced with top European leaders and called for al-Assad to step down. How is that possible? He's on vacation!
