The latest Gallup Poll shows that a whopping 27% of Americans approve of Obama’s handling of the deficit.
68%, however, are very, very unhappy with the same issue.
These are not strong results on most of the issues, even when Obama has a plurality in favor. But on the deficit, he is in serious trouble.
So he an Biden announce a new plan to spend more money we don’t have virtually every day.
Brilliant.
As I have pointed out, this man is all ego – and not nearly as smart or as clever as he thinks he is.
As for the 27% who approve of his handling of the deficit, all I can say is that they are not necessarily sharing the same reality as the rest of us.
Via Memeorandum
At the risk of sounding racist, I would speculate that almost half that 27% are black voters, for whom 0bama can do no wrong. Of the remainder, I suspect the overwhelming majority either draw government assistance in some form or a taxpayer funded paycheck.
If those groups are removed, disapproval of the way the deficit is being handled probably gets as close to unanimous as is politically possible.
