45. Well your credibility is shot...
it took a lot longer then 8 years to get where we are.... Try 30 years on for size the last President to actually do something for the People was Jimmy Carter and before him it was LBJ but understand this did not happen in 8 years...

Thats part of Obama's problem too you can't just blame Bush.

I don't like anything that Bush did but dammit the American People know that he dealt with a massive Terrorist attack and a massive natural disaster and all during those years the unemployment rate was about half what it is today....

Obama needs to address the issues not the last 8 years...

The populist message about greedy corporations bilking the system and screwing over the consumer is only HALF the equation... The tea baggers and the Conservatives have a nice populist message too.. In case you and others haven't been paying attention the Other side of this equation is the unbridled nationalism and growth of the Federal government and our national debt which scares the bejesus out of people too...

Obama must embrace both or he will lose all credibility and the problem is to embrace both means you PISS off the special interests in both political camps.....

Stop looking at this problem with one eye open and one eye shut.
