Opponents of Britain's European Union membership have edged into the lead over the past two weeks, according to a YouGov poll which indicated President Barack Obama's intervention failed to swing support behind "In" vote in a June 23 referendum.

The online survey for The Times taken on April 25-26 showed support for the Out campaign had risen 3 percentage points to 42 percent since a similar survey on April 12-14, while support for the "In" campaign had risen 1 percentage point to 41 percent.

“Bloody ‘ell! If this Yank says to stay, I’m leavin’!”

This is a bit more accurate (don’t want to besmirch Yanks by association): “Bloody ‘ell! If this Communist Indonesian says to stay, I’m leavin’!”

He’s the opposite of the Midas Man. Everything he touches turns to...
The man is wrong on just about everything.

I think I’m going to call this phenomenon “the Obama effect”.

When some holier-than-thou dumbass somehow attains a position of power and tries to use it to influence people, they are certain to do the opposite.

There has been a trend in the present administration, which is to lose every attempt at manipulating overseas decisions, beginning with the loss of the Chicago Olympics, all the way to Brexit. Personally I would hope the Brits stay in as a counterbalance to Germany, but if I were a Brit I would want out too.

We can all laugh at the rise in the Brexit vote since Hussein’s visit. But, really, the difference between the two positions is only one percentage point. What the hell has happened to the Brits that this thing is so close? If the Brits had any brains left, then the Brexit vote would be walking away with referendum.

True story. One year, I won second place in an office basketball bracket pool simply by picking the opposite of what he picked.

Is there a term for the opposite of the Midas touch where everything he touches turns to feces instead of gold?

Seems like the Brits are smarter than many of my fellow Americans who voted for this bum.
