Obama's Approval Rating drops 9% in just one month. It's most likely due to high gas prices.

I think there's a lot of statistical noise in that. Also, as much as it makes me grit my teeth, RINO Romney is a more viable alternative to Obama than the other folks.
Overall, the economy is improving and the bad economy that Obama was unfairly blamed for last year is now becoming the better economy that Obama can unfairly take credit for. Hopefully us Republicans have learned an important lesson in intellectually honest campaigning.
Work hard, play hard.
Oh how sweet it would be to
Oh how sweet it would be to see Obama as a one term President...too bad they'll just replace him with another fool.
Well, Obama is almost
Well, Obama is almost certainly guaranteed reelection given the economic growth, strong Dow and job creation. Although his tax policies aren't the best, as Dick Gephardt said the other day, politicians are like plumbers. You hire them back when they do a good job the first time. But if they don't do a good job the first time, you don't. Obama can say that he turned things around the first time around and now he should come back a second term.
Romney on the other hand is unproven and maybe I'm a little off, but the guy just doesn't seem to be that bright. I mean, I like the sound of his tax proposal, but he doesn't seem to be the sharpest screw in the toolbox.

Now that is some solid unintentional humor.

They have to be "intellectual" first to do an "intellectually honest" campaign. lol. Between Bachmann, Palin, Gingrich and Santorum, I question if any of them put together have half a brain.

How is the economy improving when the employment number is at its lowest level since the end of WW2?

Overall, the economy is improving .
How is the economy improving when the employment number is at its lowest level since the end of WW2?
227000 jobs were created this past Feb. The unemployment rate is shrinking from almost 10 percent to around 8 percent. We were bleeding 750000 jobs a month roughly, now creating roughly 200, 000 jobs per month. I'm not a 100 percent fan of Obama either, but at the same time, you're being one-sided if you think that the economy wasn't already bleeding jobs before Obama entered office. Dubya presided over the worst economy since the Depression. 2008 was a crisis that was brewing before Obama came into office for a variety of reasons including lack of regulation of derivatives which was mostly due to the deregulation fever orchestrated under the Clinton Administration. I like Romney's tax ideas because I don't want the bastards at the IRS to fuck me out of 30 percent of my money either. But, just saying, people will go with the train that is going strong, rather than an unproven guy. Personally, I liked Ron Paul because he wanted to rid this country of the IRS and the income tax. Cain, I liked too, because of 9 percent. But realistically, what does Romney have to challenge Obama on?
Romney is 100x better than
Romney is 100x better than Obama simply because Congress will most likely be Republican controlled and Romney is 100% about the economy. He isn't going to do crap about social issues once he is in office and Presidents don't get elected because of anything but the economy.
No one cares about foreign wars or social issues, that is just shit that the factions bicker about. The majority of people vote based on employment, inflation, stock market, etc.
If Obama keeps this up he will find himself running a tight race against someone who is financially proven. Obama might have great speeches, but his Hope and Change message isn't going to do jack squat for him this time around. And the only people who care about this class warfare garbage are the same people who would have voted for Obama regardless.

The only reason unemployment is falling is because there is over 1.2 million people who are still looking for work but are not counted anymore.
Again, the real way to see if an economy is improving, is the EMPLOYMENT figure.
LOWEST since the end of WW2.

So true. I want Romney too, just saying the "message" might overwhelm him because Obama has this marketing campaign and numbers on his side.
Everyone knows Romney is just
Everyone knows Romney is just saying crap to get the social conservatives to back him. You need to cow toe to the loonies to get the nomination. Once that is in hand you can just start pounding the economic message. If the man can make the Olympics a success he can do wonders with a sympathetic Congress.
The economy is just dying to tear ass. Just needs someone to unleash it. Romney will do just that.

ORLY?
How can you be so definitive in your statement when countless economic indicators are ticking up. Things aren't breaking out because of a deadlocked Congress.
Romney has the skills and will have a favorable Congress working with him. He will be able to get things done, something Obama will not be able to do.

Anyone who thinks the economy
Anyone who thinks the economy is recovering or is just waiting to take off is completely delusional. We are going through a long term secular change, and the fun is just getting started.
