Here is an astonishingly disappointing portion of the American electorate. I think we might be in...month three now, maybe, with OWS and these people have obviously got nothing better to do. I'd like to stand on a soap box for a couple of months and scream my grievances but I am more interested in maintaining what I work so hard for presently and setting goals for my future. And, after all this time, Barack Obama has done nothing to calm down this motley crew. His silence enables them.

On a lighter note, here are some stats and polls from Rasmussen Reports:
  • Barack Obama’s presidential index rating shows that 25% of American voters strongly approve of his performance while 40% strongly disapprove, giving Obama a presidential index rating of –15.
Our president has been gaining some points in the last couple weeks. Three or four weeks ago he was between –20 and –23.
  • Overall, 49% of voters at least somewhat approve of Obama’s performance while 51% at least somewhat disapprove.
  • The Generic Congressional Ballot shows that Republicans and Democrats are tied at 41%. For the two entire previous years Republicans have led every single week until now.
The tides seem to be changing. We are still far away from the election but these numbers are interesting. What changed? Occupy Wall Street? Foreign matters? The economy and domestic policy are still nonplussing factors in our president’s equation.
  • A generic Republican candidate holds a slight lead in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Florida over Barack Obama.
  • Leading up to the Supreme Court reviewing the constitutionality of Obama’s health care plan, a majority of voters favor its repeal.
740.3 miles to go.

Here is what happened one year ago on Day78.
