I also think he will suffer from our culture’s impatience. Folks won’t keep ‘giving him a chance’ as their 401ks are devalued, for example.

I agree. What’s more, I believe that the very fact that people did suspend judgment initially will only heighten the sense of betrayal and make it harder for him to turn his poll numbers around.

Good point, that middle class voters who keep watching their wealth evaporate will lose patience with Obama.

But his core supporters among lefties, ACORN people, etc. may stay high. These ACORN dudes don’t have 401ks, so they look at things from that point of view. They think middle class people live too well and have enough money and wealth as it is. Ditto for the truly wealthy.

agreed, but his hard-core backers and the MSM will ride the “inherited” train all the way to the end of the line..

however, the amount of track left is growing shorter by the day..IMO, within 60-90 days his core constituents will begin to feel some remorse as their checks haven’t arrived AND a LOT of them find they don’t qualify for mortgage assistance etc...

he’ll begin to fall under serious fire in 3 months..IMO

My liberal relatives, all of whom are employed by large companies, have become eerily quiet with their Obozo cheer leading emails recently. Heck, they're not even sending the occasional joke anymore.

Methinks they're quaking in their boots over their 401Ks, and know all too well "who" is causing them to plummet.

I've even "poked" them with some mild anti-Obama stuff recently, but I haven't seen a single head explode. Must be some serious shell shock.
