Here are some of the numbers:
38% blame Republicans for the current economic mess. While this is opposed to just 27% blaming democrats, this is down 15 points from 6 months ago. Democrats on the other hand have taken more of the blame.

People are split over Obama's policies: 36% say they have improved, 35% say there is no change and 28% say they have worsened.

The economy is poor according to 82% of the people and only good according to 18%.

The bottom line: you can't give relief to the people by expla

Looks like it's getting tough out there according to these analysts.

If Corzine doesn't survive this, Democrats are in trouble. It will mean Republicans do have the louder microphone even if they are wrong.

Boehner: He's the president of the United States, not the mayor of Chicago.

To the GOP: you're not giving him the stimulus, you're not giving him health care; you might as well give him 1 dignified accomplishment.

Where does MSNBC get its numbers? I keep reading that the GOP has a louder microphone because their ideals appeal to Americans.

...coming from one of the most conservative faces of TV and radio.

Wilson may not be a racist but some of those who praised him probably are. Then again, Obama is also getting the same amount of opposition from the GOP as Clinton has.

Probably 1 reason why Obama's healthcare reform hasn't been as successful as first thought is that Obama left it to congress to draft the details, which leaves room for lies and myths to be created.

What a simplistic way of explaining what's happening in the politics of healthcare reform.

Condolences to the family of this strong figure who toppled a dictator.

President Obama's poll numbers are now at the levels he is elected. Still majority but down from highs when he took office. The only good thing about his proposed healthcare bill is it provides a bitter pill for reality.

Obama reacted rationally but his language should have been more appropriate and toned-down. On a side note, if the neighbours were indeed neighbours of Dr Gates, wouldn't they have recognised him as he was trying to access his OWN house?

This guy should be more prudent in stepping down.

This is the last thing Gov. John Corzine (D-NJ) needs as he heads for re-election. To make matters worse, one of his staff stepped-down.

Of those involved mayors, state assemblymen and private citizens (including rabbis).
