There's a statistic in today's Wall Street Journal poll that should send chills through The Obamanauts...
Two months ago Obama enjoyed two-to-one support among independents (60%-31%). Since then however, they've been recoiling from the president's profligacy in droves, with only 46% now approving of his performance and 44% disapproving. Rightfully alarmed by the president's blithe annexation of two major car companies, his nonchalant quadrupling of the deficit, and his intended nationalization of the health care system, political independents are retreating from the genuflection of the first few months of the Age of Obama.
To lose so many independents so fast should give the president and his politicos sleepless nights. Having so arrogantly unleashed the dogs of impending inflation, the president can expect a descent into Carterdom this autumn.
