— Ace Same pattern as in that poll I linked yesterday-- It's the independent disapproval, plus soft Democratic support, that really cuts.

Or don't think he is smart.
Or don't think you should pay sky high prices for groceries and gas.
You are also a racist if you don't trade in your 8mph gas guzzler and buy a 40K Volt.
Meh. It used to be that just skin color mattered.

The administration never paid attention to polls in the past, and have no plan to develop a stragedy based upon polling. We trust the American people to do the right thing, and are not concerned with the biased pollsters.

I don't know about your areas, but in my area SuperWalmart, I have noticed more new Mercedes, Lexus, Jaguars and Infinitis in the last six months in the parking lot than in all previous years since the Super Walmart opened about 10 years ago. It is really odd to see the boutique shoppers schlepping around Walmart with the $400 handbags and similarly priced clothing. Any other moronettes noticing that phenomenon? I actually went with a person a few months ago who confessed that he had never been to a Walmart's.

The problem is that he's half white, I can't figure which policies to support and which to condemn. What's a racist to do?

Inflation is racist.
Gas prices are racist.
Unemployment is racist.
Food prices are racist.
But voting for someone solely because of his race is A-OK. Admirable, even.

Yes. Even after several Albertson's closed, the few left open are pretty vacant, no matter what time of day. Then you can go into a Food For Less, jammed-packed. I don't mind buying cheaper cuts of meat, but the problem with both Food For Less and WalMart is that they often infuse their meats with saline solution to bulk- up weight.

Heard Allen West on Beck this A.M. telling Beck how many names he has been called such as oreo and uncle tom among others, and how West just let it roll off his back. That man has oozes integrity, honesty and love of country. There is no one who could have less experience than Obowow, so, if West were to run, I would run to his support. But, in the mean time, I will just enjoy B.O.'s slide in the polls and watch his frantic efforts to bring up the numbers. I know that will interfere with his golf, which is even more satisfying.

From Instapundit:
As a PA resident I can attest to the sea change in attitudes towards Barack Obama here.
ItÂ’s public, itÂ’s palpable and itÂ’s entirely due to inflation.
ItÂ’s astonishing to me that a bunch of guys who are supposed to be so smart think that women arenÂ’t going to the grocery store and leaving in a state of shock, disbelief and, occasionally, panic.
And a Democrat who frightens women cannot win anything. Period.
I just started playing a sort of instant citizen poll at stores. It began a week or so ago at SamsÂ’ Club:
I was in one of THOSE lines and ended up chatting with a well dressed middle aged woman with a cart half full of grocery items.
I made mention of the fact that while I didnÂ’t normally make the hike to SamsÂ’ that with prices going up I figured I had to make the effort.
She exploded: Prices are sky high, sheÂ’s feeding three kids, eating store brands and sale items but canÂ’t afford to stock up, on and on.
Then the lady in front of HER piped in: if prices keep going up she doesnÂ’t know what sheÂ’ll do, their budget is already at the breaking point, trying to keep a daughter in college, off she goes.
Then a man in the next line over heard them and HE jumped in: this is ridiculous, Washington is killing us, economy broken, heÂ’s off to the races.
I thought maybe this was just a coincidence, so IÂ’ve started the same conversation in store lines twice more in the past week and itÂ’s exactly the same: people are frightened and EVERYONE wants to talk about it out loud.
The interesting thing to me is that everyone used to be very reluctant to speak out in public against Obama. You were always afraid some leftie whackjob would hear you and tear into you. You know what I mean.
But now the gloves are off, people are freaking out and Obama can raise FIVE billion dollars for his campaign and organize until the cows come home and call everyone in the country a racist until he turns blue but itÂ’s not going to convince anyone that theyÂ’re not paying an arm and a leg for half a cart worth of food.
There is no more basic thing to people, and itÂ’s off the hook.
I donÂ’t see how the Republicans could possibly mess this up. Then again, after a lifetime of watching them do just that, if thereÂ’s way theyÂ’ll find it.

Because I know, and you know, that the media will not be able to stop themselves from making it a Big Fucking Deal lasting at least two weeks.

"This and the bill requiring drug tests for welfare recipients passing in the State House. All in the same day. Wow."
I smell "teen spirit"? Something is going on with leftards. Detroit is hammering their Teacher's Union. Mass is spanking their PSUs. And now PA is going Old Testament on welfare recipients. Methinks the polls we are seeing don't tell the full story. Things be bad in bamaland. Or, this is the foundation being set for the re-election campaign. Is Bammy finally going to run on "I'm the only one that can tell them to pull up their pants" campaign? From a strategic point of view, I don't know that the Pubbies would have a response to that. Just sayin.

Too bad that we don't have a decent candidate to run against him.
Mark my words- Obama will win because Republicans can't put up a reasonable alternative. Oh sure, all the die hards will hold their nose and vote for any imbecile that the Rs run, up to and including Ron Paul (Yup, admit it. If it was a choice between r3VOLUTION and 4 more years of Hopenchange... you'll be a Ronulan)
The catch is that the indies will either vote "thank you sir, can I have another" or stay home and they are the ones that decide elections.

@69 Who didn't expect that? Businesses can't raise prices to pay for higher fuel costs. So they are cutting jobs. Acme food stores in suburban Philly just announced 900 mostly part-time jobs will be eliminated. This morming I went to my local grocery to pick up the day-old bread for the food pantry, and there was a new guy working back in the stockroom. I talked to him and he said he is a laid-off accountant who had been out of work for 8 months and was grateful to have a $10 an hour job. When I got to the food pantry, they said they were close to empty since it is the end of the month and so many people have run out of money for food.
There are so many For Sale signs on businesses and empty stores around here it feels like the 1930s.
And this is in supposedly "affluent" Bucks County.

Gee, I lived in PA for 20+ years. I didn't know there was a federal pen in Lewisberg. When I think "Bucknell", I think University. I knew about the country club jail, Allenwood. And there was the state prison in Delaware County, in kind of a nice zipcode. Who knew! So funny--the proximity between the University and the prison!

About 75% of people in the Scranton -- Wilkes-Barre area are vehemently against natural gas drilling. Statewide, I'd guess at least 50% are. The state is full of idiots.The only hope for a GOP victory in 2012 are high energy prices and inflation from now until election day.

Just to show you how much things have changed in Bucks - in 2006, GOP Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick won Bucks by 1500 votes (while losing the overall district), Obama carried it in 2008, but 2010 Fitzpatrick won it by almost 100,000. The dipshit he beat, Patrick Murphy, was once a Democrat darling who voted the straight Pelosi line. He got beat so badly that he won't run for this seat again, he is going to run for state AG. This supposedly "swing" county is now solidly GOP, thanks to Obama.

Mittens/Daniels/Pawlenty would work well here.
The only passable name is Daniels, and outside of you and me, I think there is a good dozen or so people who know who he is. Does the candidate have money, excite people, and have a consistent message? Those are the winning characteristics - not point papers.

Thanks for all the concern. Concern is such a misunderstood concept. I'm concerned too. So concerned that my friends are concerned.
There's no such thing as an independent anymore. The lines of demarcation were drawn over a year ago. The independent paradigm was broken in the 2010 elections and it will remain that way in 2012 if this nation can survive that long.
