    So Obama wastes taxpayer money and his time by flying to Europe to tell the IOC why Chicago is the best place for the Olympics.  Hours after he left, they voted Chicago the first city out.

    Obama has invested a lot of time campaigning for the VA and NJ governorship and BOTH Democrats lost.

    In the VA exit polls, 40% of voters were drawn to the polls because of Obama's campaigning but it was split whether they voted for or against BECAUSE of Obama's campaigning.

    It looks like people are not only voting for candidates because of Obama's support but voting against candidates because of Obama.

    I have a feeling that the celebrity and "wishful thinking" of Obama being a great candidate is gone.

    Obama needs to spend LESS time flapping his jaws and more time trying to fix issues.

    How about starting with Afghanistan and make a freaking decision!!!!  Or just shake the 8-ball and use that as your decision.  DO SOMETHING!

    This clown will be voted out of office even if he goes against Palin smile

    Well they still love him over in Europe.  However I understand that Obama just turned down Merkel's invitation to the anniversary of the destruction of the Berlin Wall.  Seems that Obama only wanted it for a backdrop for his speeches but the meaning of the real event escapes him.

    There have been Europeans in this forum that can't believe that people in the U.S. don't like him but I told them the was only in public office for less than 4 years and they were shocked.

    They definitely see him more as an image and celebrity than a politician.  They get caught up in his speeches but don't know the real Obama.

    They'll catch on smile

    Public opinion polls are at 50% for Obama's approval rating which is the lowest for him as well.

    Ok, there is a CORRELATION.

    And it's funny how all the Obama supporters always complain about people who point out his faults but NEVER give examples of how he is improving everything.  They never try to defend him with facts lol

    Anyone notice that?

    it is a complete waste of my time to talk politics on the HP political forums. I have no desire in getting involved but when I see this ridiculous title, I will leave a remark. you don't see what you don't look for.

    Don't delude yourself. This was a meaningless election.  The right candidates won because they were a better choice than the opposing candidate. Obama did what he had to do as the ranking democrat.

    If in 2010 the republicans can offer a quality candidate that has a few ideas then Obama may be in trouble to repeat.

    Vote issues and not party is the only way this country can survive.

    a helpful site to get the facts is politifact dot com.

    it sorts out the facts and fiction.

    There is no such thing as the Republican/Conservative party.  Republicans in Virginia and New Jersey who were careful to distance themselves from the right-wing loonies beat two troubled candidates.

    The conservative who did the opposite, distancing himself from the "rational" Republicans was beaten by a mediocre Democratic candidate.

    If Republicans want to retain any relevance as a national party, they have to throw the GlenBeck cult overboard.

    I wonder what would have happened in New York if they had taken the supposed Republican off the ballot? She got 6% of the vote, where do you think they would have gone?

    You know what you two are so predictable.  Nothing to say but plenty of attitude.  I guess ignorance is bliss.  Just look how much fun you have.

    Oh that was something.  She endorsed the democrat and republicans still voted for her!  I think the republican party is just a democratic party mini-me.  They'd probably have gone to the democrats.

    I'm amazed the conservative got as much as he did considering he's not a politician and he had no party backing him up.
