his slogan should be, no hope and only despair...you voted for transformation...well you have it
SNIP:
Of all the bitter fruit of the Barack Obama disaster, the most bitter may be the sense of hopelessness that has descended on Americans, especially the young. Has there ever been anything like it in our history? Even on the eve of the Civil War, was there this much pessimism about our future? Gallup wasnt around in those days, but I wonder.
For a simple measure of how the Obama administration has crushed any sense of hopefulness in the American people, take a look at the survey that Rasmussen Reports does periodically on whether Americas best days are behind her, or still in the future. Its a great question that tells a lot about how Americans are feeling.
Rasmussen last asked the question before Barack Obama took office in August 2008, while the presidential campaign that resulted in Obamas election was in progress. The result:
45% of voters think Americas best days lie ahead, while 37% think they have come and gone.
That was after nearly eight years of the supposedly disastrous Bush administrationwhich, by the way, looks more like a golden age every day, compared with what has followed.
Fast forward to today, after nearly five years of the Obama administration. How are Americans feeling about the future?
