Dems Rejecting Obama

[Lumpy 1]

I suppose Democrat Candidates for House, Senate and Governorships figure Obama has given them enough help with his polices and programs and figure their doing so well, they just don't even need him around to help in their elections.

---------------

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — President Barack Obama doesn't go there anymore.

The days of Obama traipsing around the country to states like Montana, Indiana or Arkansas in freewheeling campaign mode — and with sky-high popularity lifting Democratic candidates — are long over. With his approval rating sliding, the president in the next few weeks is primarily sticking to big cities — Milwaukee, Cleveland and Philadelphia — and other party strongholds, like Connecticut, where he can help fellow Democrats in the midterm election homestretch.

Who's campaigning for Democratic candidates in Arkansas on Wednesday? Former President Bill Clinton, ex-governor of the state.

Yep.

Ain't heard nary a one touting their vote on HC or that oh so great stim package.

I think most would just as soon that OL'BO didn't come to their States to campaign for em.

I guess that Ol Hope and Change bs ain't workin for them either.

 

[The Rabbi]

More people have seen Elvis than have seen Obama on the campaign trail.

 

[rightwinger]

Obama has been ramping up his campaigning and the gap has been narrowing.

Nov 2 is not a sure thing

Nov 2 is not a sure thing

Memo: Yes, it is a sure thing.

 

[Sallow]

Nov 2 is not a sure thing

Memo: Yes, it is a sure thing.

True. The date in inevitable.

Republican victory, however, is not.

And what you guys fail to read in the polls..is Reagan had worse numbers..in terms of popularity and unemployment..at this point..then Obama.

How'd that turn out?

Keep banging that drum, bubba.
Yeah, Reagan was a much worse president than Obama. LOL!!!!!

The Dems are truly desperate.

When it comes to uniting the GOP, yes you are quite correct.

No question that the GOP must re-establish itself. Unfortunately, the shift to the right will be their undoing.

Obama is already establishing himself as a top ten president. His strong economic actions upon taking office saved the nation from a Depression and he is the first president to pass a comprehensive healthcare bill.

Few Presidents have accomplished as much in their first two years in office. Historians will credit him accordingly while once again the Republicans will be on the wrong side of history. No wonder they keep trying to rewrite history

You must be referring to the nearly trillion dollar stimulus to avoid 8% unemployment. Worked well as unemployment blew right by 8% lickety-split. And ObamaCare that already isn't performing as advertised and no one on earth - certainly not those who didn't even bother reading the bill they voted on - have the vaguest idea what it will cost in years ahead or how damaging it will be.

IMO historians will have more to say about the wisdom of this year's Dimocrat candidates who were mum on the campaign trail about Barry's (and their) accomplishments thus far in his only term as president.

Only 28 more days to the ass kicking!!!

From the Financial Times...

we should be "eulogizing" it as the one piece of legislation that has done more to "save" America's financial system — and therefore its economy — "than any passed since the 1930s." Read an excerpt:

No one can doubt that without TARP financing sources would have fled in terror from the banking system. Almost immediately institutions that dwarfed Lehman in size — potentially, AIG, Citigroup, and Bank of America — would certainly have collapsed. Runs on other banks would have followed, causing credit to evaporate in the economy. A depression-era landscape of shuttered banks is easily imagined.

Without TARP, General Motors and Chrysler would also have been at the mercy of Congress, whose dithering ways would have resulted in at least one of them running out of money, shutting down and liquidating. If Congress then failed to act quickly the other carmaker would have immediately followed suit. That would have brought down the vast majority of the sector’s many suppliers, already teetering on the edge of bankruptcy.

Funny how they dis-associate themselves with him before their elections but after their elections they will vote for whatever the Messiah wants....

You do know the difference between TARP and Barry's unstimulating stimulus, don't you?

 

[The Rabbi]

The Democrats in Congress rejected extending TARP to the automakers. It was Bush who did so by executive order.

Glad to see you coming on line and ackowledging TARPS role in saving the economy. Both Bush and Obama will be able to take credit for averting disaster

First off...I know the Conservatives opposed them all.

Secondly, I know that TARP to the Auto and Financial sector saved an economic collapse.

Thirdly, I know that the stimulus added 3.3 million jobs to the economy (firefighters, teachers, cops, construction). It also signaled the point where the Recession reversed
