This morning, Dave Weigel tweeted “Unpopular/overreaching GOP governors in OH, WI, FL — good or bad for GOP’s prez ticket?”. That really got me thinking about the upcoming general elections. The first actual poll of Ohio Governor John Kasich was released this morning. In it they find his approval rating at a dismal 40%, with […]
As the House prepares to take up a resolution of disapproval over Rep. Joe Wilson’s outburst during last week’s appearance by President Obama to a joint session of Congress, the wingnuts have found what they claim to be “hypocrisy” on the Democrats part. This video is from 2007 when Rep. Pete Stark was saying how […]
I just noticed this article via AmericaBlog: Some Democrats, led by Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-S.C.), are pushing for an official censure of Wilson, with a floor vote on the resolution coming as early as Tuesday.

Can we say OUCH: President Bush’s approval rating has slumped to 31% in a new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll, the lowest of his presidency and a warning sign for Republicans in the November elections. The survey of 1,013 adults, taken Friday through Sunday, shows Bush’s standing down by 3 percentage points in a single week. His […]
Bush is proving to be an even greater liability to the Republican party. Intense and widespread opposition to President Bush is likely to be a sharp spur driving voters to the polls in this fall’s midterm elections, according to strategists in both parties, a phenomenon that could give Democrats a turnout advantage over Republicans for […]
