Bumbling Obama Will Need a Miracle to Avoid Jimmy Carter's Fate Now . . .

America's contemptuous hack of a President golfs and scarfs lobster while Rome burns... small wonder most of us have had just about enough of this inept crackpot already


If the recent Gallup poll indicating an unprecedented 10-point Republican lead in generic congressional preference didn't administer a badly-needed dose of reality to Team Obama, his own rapidly-sinking approval numbers ought to finally bring-it-home... that is, if there's any chance of them ever accepting any culpability for anything...


But in the wake of Barack Obama's astounding and very real waste of of political capital, reality is hitting the rest of the American Left, hard... as noted by Nile Gardner in The Telegraph (UK) yesterday, he's likely on the verge of becoming a lame-duck president in less than 60 days from today... 
Another poll by Gallup this week shows Republicans leading the Democrats in Congress on the handling of nine key election issues, including terrorism (a 24 point lead), immigration (15 points), federal spending (15 points), and the economy (11 points)...

On key economic issues, likely to dominate in November, the Republicans have a seemingly unassailable advantage– the four most important voter issues according to Gallup are the economy, jobs, corruption in government and federal spending. 
Add to that the fact that Obama himself -the one now-screwed Dem incumbents inexplicably bet-the-House on- is at an all-time Gallup approval low of 43% -and tanking hard...


Theoretically, he's got two years to turn that around, but the trend suggests nothing of the sort... and the harsh caning his power-mad Democratic Party is about to receive at the hand of the American voter now spells doom for the entire Obama "progressive" legislative agenda... and right-now:
Could the Republicans win the Senate, causing a major upset? 

Judging by these polls that is now a distinct possibility, and would be nothing short of a political earthquake that may herald the defeat of President Obama himself in 2012. 

Only a miracle can reverse the fortunes of the Obama presidency in the lead-up to the mid-terms, and Barack Obama has been notably short of miracles since taking office, whether political or economic. The good fortune which he possessed when winning the presidency has all but evaporated, replaced by mounting opposition to both his policies and left-wing ideology. 

According to Rasmussen, just 29 percent of likely voters now believe the country is heading in the right direction, a damning indictment of President Obama’s leadership of the country. For a “transformational” president, this is devastating. 

Without the House of Representatives to rubber stamp his Big Government agenda, and the Senate in a likely stalemate, it will be impossible for Barack Obama to force legislation through in the final two years of his presidency. He will also be under immense pressure to cut the budget deficit and reduce government spending, as well as reverse his plans on health care reform, all of which go completely against his instincts. Bill Clinton, a far more skilful and pragmatic politician in many respects, survived the 1994 Democrat meltdown by moving to the center and working with the Right on some issues, a prospect that President Obama would find unpalatable. 

The Obama presidency is facing meltdown, and according to the polls is likely to be greatly weakened from November onwards, throwing a major spanner in the works of the ambitious Obama agenda to remake America. 

A conservative revolution is heading its way to Washington on a wave of anti-government sentiment, and looks unstoppable. 

Like Jimmy Carter before him, President Obama has succeeded in revitalising conservatism in the United States, and reawakening a sleeping giant. 

When Barack Obama spoke in his election campaign of bringing “change” to America, I doubt this is quite what he had in mind...
