The Republicans in this conservative town blame the Republicans for the mess. I find that all over the South as I travel. The leaderships locally and regionally are trying to throw off the Tea Party folks, because they know the TP will cost them election after election.
The point is pretty clear. Despite all the talk radio ranting and raving, and the Internet wailing and whining about how bad Obama is, it's clear that he's STILL more popular than Congress. Additionally, the general public STILL blames the Bush administration for the current state of the economy over Obama by better than a 3-1 margin.
You know what I think? I think that Americans in general are tuning conservatives out after years of listening to exaggerated claims and emotionally-charged rants on every subject under the sun.
You really think that 8% of the people in this country think Obama is to blame and 3 times that after 3 trillion in debt and 30 months still blame GWB?
ARE YOU SERIOUS?
check out the thread thats forth coming
Any non partisan who was an adult at the time of the economic meltdown of 2008 (which followed the recession which started in 2007) knows that President Obama and his administration is not responsible for the mess we're in.

Every poll overwhelmingly shows that the American people want taxes raised on upper income earners as at least PART of any deficit reduction agreement. Yet, Republicans steadfastly insist that ANY changes in taxes, or tax loopholes, are off the table. Which party appears to be ignoring the electorate? Frankly, I don't think it's a winning strategy to be defending men flying around in corporate jets when average Americans can't find work. But Republicans are perfectly free to flog that horse if that's what they want to do.
Who is most to blame for the condition of the US economy?
Bush Administration 26%
Wall Street 25%
Congress 11%
Obama Admin 8%
All the above 7%
The poll also reveals some interesting statistics about the president and congress.
President Obama's approval/disapproval rating is 47/44%
Meanwhile, Congress' approval/disapproval rating is 20/70%
CBS News/NYT Poll: 6/29/11 - CBS News
Congress had better get it's act together because, it looks to me like the Republican Congress will get the blame if the debt ceiling isn't raised and there's a risk of either a default or a downgrading of America's credit rating, which, by the way, would cause interest rates to rise and put America even deeper in the hole.
Congress is 11%. But the damage happened when Republicans were in charge of both houses. That means the US blames the Republicans by more than 70%. The other 30% writes on this board.
Oooops...........almost forgot to mention...............
