Obama has never been overly modest about his own powers. [during his campaign], he declared that history will mark his ascent to the presidency as the moment when “our planet began to heal” and “the rise of the oceans began to slow.”
When you anoint yourself King Canute, you mustn’t be surprised when your subjects expect you to command the tides.

How soon you forget what was promised...
We were going to see LOWER premiums by election day and 5% unemployment.
He did not deliver on his promises, but once again, that is not his fault, it is always the fault of something else, General Republican Philosophy, General Trends, OBSTRUCTION of the bowels...
It is good to see Pooks in her place and doing the ironing...

Extra starch please...
I bitched about Bush for six years, and through all that time the Republicans on this board never trashed me the way the Democrats do now that "their guy" is "in charge."
They were angry when Bush was President, but they seem even more angry now that Obama is President.
Maybe it's just disappointment.
Promise a lower of premiums? Yes! When they keep going up, well they were already going up, don't blame us! Our plan is WORKING!
New swing state polls are out today from Rasmussen and We Ask America, all taken yesterday after the first Presidential debate. In Rasmusssen surveys, Romney is up 1
in Virginia (he had been down 1) , up 2 in Floria (he has been down 2) and down 1 in Ohio (same as before)
We Ask America has Romney up 3 in Virginia (last survey had Obama up 3), up 1 in Ohio (first survey in this cycle for the state), and up 3 in Florida (last survey had Obama up 3).
The average of the surveys from the two polls in each of the three most critical swing states puts Romney up 2 in Virginia, up 2.5% in Florida, and even in Ohio.
A new Gravis poll has Obama up 1 in Nevada, another swing state.
We Ask America also has a new poll in Illinois 10, the most Democratic district now represented by a Republican in Congress (Obama won by well over 20% last time). Freshman GOP Rep. Bob Dold is up 2% and amazingly, Obama, too, is only up 2% in a district he won by 23% in 2008. This is a heavily Jewish district, so maybe there is evidence of some blowback over Israel policy.
Of course Nate Silver's model will probably absorb all this, and since lately it seems to work like the model that produces the monthly unemployment rate, will conclude that Obama's chances to win have gone up from 88% to 90%.
Promise 5% unemployment...
7.8% is a MIRACLE!!! We didn't know how bad it really was until JUST LAST WEEK!
When we were up by double digits!
Now, the polls are being fixed in Romney's favor!
Must be RASSMUSSEN!

Less American Thinker, please. Show some originality. Use Google. I'm sure you can find a fresh idea that you can quote.
Rasmussen shows Obama up by 2% nationally and up 5% in swing states - exactly the same figures as right before the debate.

He is a rw liar. We know that after the stellar debate performance and miracle employment numbers that Obama is really back to double-digit leads and is cruising to victory with the same nonchalance and lack of sweat with which he dueled the mighty Mitt Romney to a tie in the debate...
The only substantive win for Romney was his flag pin being bigger. Romney had all the lies while our glorious President had all the facts...

Intrade showed a drop for two days, but made up some of the lost ground yesterday. Obama is back up to a 67.8% chance of winning ... up about 2 percentage points this morning.
Why isn't that HUGE down tick in the unemployment numbers reflected in a equal up tick in the labor force participation number? Well, that's because the unemployment number reported (U3) is a 'cooked' number. If that number was a true reflection of the employment picture in the United States you would necessarily HAVE to see corresponding changes in the U6 numbers and the labor force participation numbers, those changes are NOT there folks.

And you've figured in demographic factors such as the baby boomers into that .... how?
