2. From the article
According to Gallup’s most recent poll Obama’s approval rating amongst African Americans is down to about 84 percent, which is still higher than any other group, but significantly down from the 90-plus percent approval he had in his first year or so in office. Latino support has also fallen to 54 percent

3. It might be the lack of 'changey' in the 'hopey-changey'. There is just
too much of the old 'samey'.
