This pisses me off because we all need Obama to be reelected.
Do you think Barack Obama deserves to be reelected, or not?
Yes, deserves to be reelected 44%
No, does not deserve to be reelected 52%

I'd say that so far the 13-dimensional chess is not working.
We can start turning this around by fixing and passing a popular health insurance reform bill:
Dear Leader Reid:
We respectfully ask that you bring for a vote before the full Senate a public health insurance option under budget reconciliation rules.

Respectfully,
Michael Bennet (D-CO), U.S. Senator
Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), U.S. Senator
Jeff Merkley (D-OR), U.S. Senator
Sherrod Brown (D-OH), U.S. Senator
A Gang of Four to Reid: Pass Public Option by Reconciliation
The good news is that 2012 is a long way off, but this poll shows that the President will not be much help for Congress candidates. Just today I read that the Dem in Connecticut running for Senate is hemming and hawing about whether he wants the President to campaign for him.
I like the new efforsts by the President in taking on Republicans. He needs to fight for the American people against the entenched interests.
I do not want to see a one term President.
I'm sure people will tell me CNN is baised and everything is really fine or this is the fault of progressives. There always is an excuse. But we have Virginia, New Jersey, Massachusetts and now this. Too much data says that 2009 did not work out for us.
