Gee, what happened to his majority? It's been relatively quiet since the election, what of significance has happened to turn so many against him in such a short period of time?

Could it be that his mandate was just a bunch of election-screwing hoo-hah?

3. At least it shows to me
there are people out there who have some sort of consecious and want change. Now I wonder if they'd vote next year and democratic.... I don't care if they never vote democratic again. Next year is the only thing that matters to me.

5. As Malloy says
Wars, deficits, distortions, lies, loss of world respect, 1600 dead, bankruptcies, but "at least the gays can't get married!"

6. I think the difference is...
The polls we paid attention to pre-election were comprised of likely or registered voters. The polls we're seeing now are from the general public, registered to vote or not. I suspect he's always been far less popular in polls that don't focus on voting status.
