Obama Gets Pop From His Base, While Spending Like a Drunken Sailor

Rasmussen's monthly summary shows that the Great One (NO!, not Wayne Gretzky!) Obama got a pop in popularity.


They also note that the "pop" in the index (which is created by subtracting strongly disapprove from strongly approve among likely voters) is almost 100% due to more energy from Democrats.

In other words, a partisan bill gets partisan support.

However, that increased enthusiasm has come at a cost among unaffiliated voters. Among those not affiliated with either major party, just 23% Strongly Approve of the President’s performance while 48% Strongly Disapprove (see other recent demographic highlights).

So there is hope this socialist nightmare will come to an end in November, as Obama, Pelosi and Reid spend America into the poor house.  Some of the headlines from the week:

Obama: U.S. Would Go Bankrupt Without Health Reform

Obama said in a nationally broadcast interview Friday he isn't worried that his bold reach for a $1.3 trillion, 10-year makeover might cause his public approval ratings to plummet.

Let's keep them plumetting!

Ronald Reagan said:

We could say [Democrats] spend money like drunken sailors, but that would be unfair to drunken sailors. It would be unfair, because the sailors are spending their own money.
