Obama's polls are normalizing at a faster rate than his past 4 predecessors. Not a good prospect for the Dems for the 2010 elections.

The people who are most pissed at Obama at the moment are the liberals, not the conservatives.

Their only hope is the GOP still seems clueless as to whom to head their party. They are also still having a huge dearth of attractive and articulate candidates as well as continuing to piss off the conservative base, a base that most Americans identify themselves with. Once again proving the truth and not the MSNBC's version that the this process helping the Dems because of the GOP's faults and not the "success" of the Dems.

While style got him elected, the shine on that penny is wearing off pretty fast and he will need some serious and true policy success stories so the Dems in Congress can ride his coat tails again.

Prediction (subject to change baring some huge political news) -- Dems lose their filibuster-proof majority in the Senate and a significant number of seats in the House, almost making a 50-50 split. If the GOP re-connects with their base again (which, I do not think they will as long as Steele is at the helm) then the losses will be bigger.

Galen may knock history but one thing is for certain and that it's certain.
