A disastrous summer for the White House. Is Barack Obama now the most unpopular US president since Jimmy Carter?

Posted on August 15th, 2011

EXCERPT ONLY: Could President Obama’s approval rating fall as low as Jimmy Carter’s, hovering just above 30 percent? Undoubtedly it could, with the economic situation deteriorating and consumer confidence plunging.

Posted on May 27th, 2010

By: Drew Zahn © 2010 WorldNetDaily If Democratic Congressman Joe Sestak is to be believed, there’s someone in the Obama administration who has committed a crime – and if the president knew about it, analysts say it could be grounds for impeachment. “This scandal could be enormous,” said Dick Morris, a former White House adviser [...]

Posted on January 26th, 2010

Their party was out of ideas and out of office. It had grown preposterously out of touch, a caricature of economic irresponsibility and elite, Washington-dinner-party values. Then along came Bill Clinton to return Democrats to the political center and teach them how to win. For the party seared by McGovern, Carter, Mondale, and Dukakis, the [...]

Is Obama taking the 3rd Way (Clinton)?

Posted on January 22nd, 2010

Remember the Summer of 2009 when Town Halls meetings on Health Care reform was on the verge of turning ugly?  Then Obama held a joint congressional address which he tried to sell health reform as a centrist?  We certainly do.  It didn’t last that long.  After that joint session address, Obama, Reid, and Pelosi went back [...]
