It’s looking more and more like Obama’s going to take congressional Democrats down with him again next year. But some Democratic consultants still cling to hope (and change):
“I’m glad the election’s not today,” said Democratic pollster Keith Frederick, a veteran of House races. “Every poll shows independents losing their patience for the president. These House elections tend to get nationalized, and there’s no doubt right now that as a referendum on Barack Obama, House Democrats lose.”
I would love to know what makes Frederick think that Obama is going to be more popular in 2012. If Democrats think the jobs bill is going to be enough to save them, they are sadly mistaken. Especially after Obama strips it of everything but corporate tax breaks and forces Democrats to vote for it.
