The American people wanted change, and who could blame them? But now there is no change they can believe in. Sixty-two percent believe we are headed in the wrong direction*—a record during this administration. All the polls indicate that anti-Washington, anti-incumbent sentiment is greater than it has been in many years. For the first time, Obama's disapproval rating has topped his approval rating. In a recent CBS News poll, there is a meager 15 percent approval rating for Congress. In all polls, voters who call themselves independents have swung against the administration and against incumbents.
Even some in Obama's base have turned, with 17 percent of Democrats disapproving of his job performance. Even more telling is the excitement gap. Only 44 percent of those who voted for him express high interest in this year's elections. That's a 38-point drop from 2008. By contrast, 71 percent of those who voted Republican last time express high interest in the midterm elections, above the level at this stage in 2008. And these are the people who vote.
They don't. Republicans win midterm. Economy improves Americans get more comfy with Obama and repubs to deliver some fine ass gridlock. Obama wins in 12.
why do we care what a whining partisan hack like mort says?

Very possible. I would not mind an improved economy and a second Obama term greatly reduced in actual legislative ability by a far more conservative Congress.
If the economy continues to stagnate though - Obama is toast.

And I don't see the economy improving much by 12 anyway. We've got ourselves a HUGE hole to climb out of. The partisanship will continue with Obama in office. And very little ground will be gained until he's gone.
