Red to Blue and Back to Red Again

Beltway Confidential has some bad news for those who thought 2008 represented a complete realignment of U.S. voting patterns:
So much for the coming Democratic reallignment. Public Policy Poliing -- Democratic polling firm -- breaks the bad news for the president. Obama now has a negative approval in every Bush state that he flipped from red to blue in the last election:

-In Colorado a recent Rasmussen poll found his approval at 45/53. Research 2000 found his favorability at 46/47 in January.

-In Florida Rasmussen found his approval at 45/54 and Quinnipiac's latest found it at 45/49.

-In Indiana Rasmussen has his approval at 44/54 and Research 2000 finds his favorability at 46/49.

-In Iowa Rasmussen has him at 45/54, and the latest Des Moines Register poll put his approval at 46%, though I can't find the disapproval number anywhere.

-In Nevada Rasmussen finds his approval at 46/54. We found 44/52 in in January.

-In New Mexico we found his approval last week at 45/48.

-In North Carolina our last poll put him at 45/51.

-In Ohio Quinnipiac's last poll put him at 44/52.

-In Virginia Rasmussen's latest has him a 48/51. SurveyUSA last had him at 44/54, and we put him at 42/52.

Hope, change, rainbows and unicorns will only take you so far. The Bush states Obama won are now awakening from the Obama spell.

I would hope those who were foolish enough to vote for Obama will reap a harvest which they were not counting on. All one had to do was look at his voting record the short time he was in congress and pay attention to who he associated with and what his attitudes were regarding freedom here in the U.S.A. He has had no experience in running anything of a business nature and also has no experience with the military. I'm really not too sure what experience being a Community Organizer has to do with running for the office of President. Not exactly anything you would desire in a president.
