NOBAMA: Change You Can Believe In … 52% of Americans Say Obama Does Not Deserve Reelection in 2012
No he can’t and talk about some real hope and change from the American voters.
In a stunning CNN poll, 52% of Americans think that The One should be one and done. That is correct, by a 52% to 44% vote, We the People say that Barack Hussein Obama does not deserve to be reelected in 2012. My what a difference a year makes. Obama’s reelection is not until 2012; however, the 2010 midterms by all accounts are predicted to be disastrous for Democrats.
This was part of a CNN poll that stated that that there was an anti-incumbent sentiment among the public as only 34% feel that current federal lawmakers deserve re-election, while 63% say they should not. Even though this CNN poll is harsh on incumbents, both Democrat and Republican, there are other indicators that show that Republicans have the upper hand in 2010 with the voters. Republicans lead Democrats in the Generic Congressional ballot by 9 points, that spells disaster in the midterms. In poll after poll after poll, Republicans lead US Senate races in an attemopt to take back control.
Only a third of U.S. voters think that most members of Congress deserve to be re-elected this year, according to a new national poll. That’s the lowest number ever recorded for that question in a CNN survey.
The numbers on both questions are even lower than in 1994, when an anti-incumbent fever helped Republicans win back control of both the House and the Senate from Democrats. The trend line on those questions goes back to 1991, when they were first asked.
“This is not a good year to be an incumbent, regardless of which party you belong to,” said CNN polling director Keating Holland. “Voters seem equally angry at both Republicans and Democrats this year.”
All political polling indicators point to the fact that 1994 might be child’s play compared what is about to happen to Democrats in the 2010 midterms.

See Donkeys Run with Obama’s Permission, Democrats Keeping their Distance from Poll Dropping Barack Obama
What a difference a year makes … Barack Obama from The One to a political Albatross.
Just one short, make that long year, after Barack Hussein Obama was swept into office on the campaign rhetoric of “Hope & Change,” the Democrat party and Obama find them elf in a much different place. Obama was the Chosen One, he was the Obamamessiah.
Democrats, don’t ask for things they might come true. You wanted Obama, now you are stuck with him and the catastrophe that is about to happen to you party.
Not any more. The Democrats are distancing them self from Obama as his job approval poll numbers sink and America more and more rejects his policies and agenda. Hey Democrats, how is that “hopee, changee” thing working out for ya?
You to can have Obama come campaign for you and get the results that Corzine, Deeds and Coakley did in New Jersey, Virginia and Massachusetts. All Republican landslide wins in states that Obama carried in 2008.
The Obama Administration and Democrats decided not to listen to the American people, the very individuals who elected them. Democrats also forgot who works for who. For this egregious offense they will pay a price at the ballot box in November like no one has seen ever. No slight of hand trick or sudden move away from Obama can help them. Democrats made their bed and now it’s time to pay the Piper in 2010 and 2012 election.
Aligning themselves too closely with the White House could be a strategic mistake ahead of the midterm election, they fear. It’s an approach that has the administration’s tacit blessing.
Reporting from Washington – As President Obama’s approval ratings sag and the mood of voters sours, some Democratic congressional candidates are distancing themselves from the White House, with the back-channel blessing of party officials.
The candidates are positioning themselves as independent voices no less frustrated with the Obama administration than people back home.
However, this last minute dodge by Democrats to deceive the American voters is too little and much too late. The fact that Donkeys are asking permission from their Obamamessiah to be independent is as Sister Toldja states, “a strong indicator that they are not, in fact, “independent”? Democrats have badly read the mood of the American people and blindly supported the President’s agenda on bail outs, government spending, health care and Cap & Trade, against the will of the people.

Rhode Island Democratic US Rep. Patrick Kennedy Won’t Seek Reelection in 2010
Add another one to the Democratic list of those who will not seek reelection in 2010. However, this time its RI Democrat US Rep Patrick Kennedy, the son of the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy. Another One Bites the Dust …
Kennedy, 42, was first elected to the House in 1994. His departure will leave Congress without a Kennedy for the first time since 1962, when his father was elected to the Senate seat held previously by his uncle, John F. Kennedy.
In a two-minute video retirement announcement, Kennedy invokes the memory of his father as he explains his decision to leave the House.
“My father instilled in me a deep commitment to public service,” Kennedy says. “Now, having spent two decades in politics, my life is taking a new direction, and I will not be a candidate for reelection this year. Going forward, I will continue many of the fights we’ve waged together, particular on behalf of those suffering from depression, addiction, autism and post-traumatic stress disorder.”
The AP & MSM resorts that it is the end of an era, but one would ask ERA? The Founding Fathers never intended for political service to be a full time, let alone life time appointment. They also fought against royal families of rule, not embracing them. ther looks at it that Washington, DC is now Kennedy free.
Patrick Kennedy’s retirement will leave the Congress Kennedy-free for the first time since 1962. Could Republicans go 2 for 2 in New England in replacing once held Kennedy seats? Will there be a Scott Brown effect in Rhode Island?
Kennedy stated he had made some missteps, ya think?
“I’m so grateful to the people of Rhode Island. When I made missteps or suffered setbacks, you responded not with contempt but with compassion.”
Yet another seat that Democrats will have to defend in 2010 … Is Nancy Pelsoi getting nervous yet?
UPDATE I: Did Patrick Kennedy retire from the House because he feared a tough challenge? That is what a USA Today article is asking. It appears that the days of Democrats getting a free ride in New England states might be at an end. It would seem that the Scott Brown election in Massachusetts has affected more than just one Kennedy political seat.
It is a trend across America this political cycle, once safe and unopposed Democrat seats are now either being challenged by Republicans, have Republicans in the lead in polls or have Democrats simply retiring rather than suffering election night defeat.
The WPVI-TV poll showed 62% of Rhode Island voters surveyed gave him an unfavorable job approval rating and only 35% said they would vote to re-elect him.
“This could become the race of Patrick Kennedy’s life,” pollster Joe Fleming told WPVI.
The poll surveyed only 250 voters, which is low, and had a margin of error of plus or minus 6.2%, which is high. Nevertheless, it sparked a buzz among conservative bloggers that Patrick Kennedy was “next.” As Hot Air, a right-of-center blog, wrote on Feb. 5: “Kennedy may not be able to withstand the anti-incumbent fervor in what has been a state almost as reliably blue as Massachusetts.”
Patrick Kennedy called Brown’s candidacy “a joke’’ … Looks like the jokes on him and Patrick appears not to be laughing, but saying good bye to politics instead.

More MSM Washington Post Misrepresentations … House Republican Retirements Mean GOP Losing Momentum, Not Even Close
Nice try media, but Democrats will be dropping like flies on midterm election eve this November after the votes are counted.
Once again the lame stream media, this time the Washington Post puts forth a false and negative premise of the Republican parties momentum is coming to a halt. In the wake of three Republican retirements in the House of Representatives in the past 10 days the WAPO is quick to say, or should we say wish, hope and pray that there is now a debate between the leaders of the two major parties over whether the GOP is losing momentum in its quest to score major gains at the ballot box this fall.
With the three latest lawmakers choosing not to seek reelection in November, Republicans will have to defend 18 open seats and Democrats 14. The raw numbers contradict the conventional wisdom that Democrats would head for the sidelines after GOP Sen. Scott Brown’s special election victory Jan. 19 in Massachusetts.

Beware Incumbents in Power: 75% of Americans Angry With Current Government Policies
Americans to Washington, DC … WE ARE MAD AS HELL AND NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANY MORE.
Just when Democrat incumbents thought things had died down as the Obamacare debate had been shelved for the time being, along comes the following Rasmussen poll that should scare the daylights out of them. 75% of Americans are angry with current government policies.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 75% of likely voters now say they are at least somewhat angry at the government’s current policies, up four points from late November and up nine points since September. The overall figures include 45% who are Very Angry, also a nine-point increase since September.
63% of Americans think that America would be better off if most Congressman were not reelected to office. Something that I cannot disagree with; however, that does not mean throw all the bums out. There are some politicians that are actually doing a good job. It is the voters job to determine which ones. Although Americans blame both parties for being out of touch with America one has to remember two key points when it comes to the overall mood and possible voting tendencies come the midterm elections in November.
One, Democrats control the White House, Senate and House of Representatives. Their overwhelming majorities in the House and Senate make it possible for them to pass legislation that WE THE PEOPLE are upset about without Republican support.
Two, the Generic Congressional Ballot has Republicans ahead of Democrats 44% to 36%.
Poll after poll, whether they be US Senate, US House or Governors races, Republicans have leads across the board mainly because the Independents have shifted to them and far away from Democrats. Barack Obama and the Donkey party appears to be in for a long midterm election night as WE THE PEOPLE are about to remind all politicians who works for who.
To piggyback on the 75% of Americans angry at the current government policies comes the WAPO/ABC poll where 2/3′s of Americans are “dissatisfied” or downright “angry” about the way the federal government is working.
The opening is clear: Public dissatisfaction with how Washington operates is at its highest level in Post-ABC polling in more than a decade — since the months after the Republican-led government shutdown in 1996 — and negative ratings of the two major parties hover near record highs.
But nearly two-thirds of those polled say they know just some, very little or nothing about what the tea party movement stands for. About one in eight says they know “a great deal” about the positions of tea party groups, but the lack of information does not erase the appeal: About 45 percent of all Americans say they agree at least somewhat with tea partiers on issues, including majorities of Republicans and independents.
It should be no shock that Americans are angry, pissed off even and they are about to take their wrath out on the party in power in 2010. Democrats, you can run, you can hide and you can deny … however, the midterm elections will occur and you will lose.
