For many political junkies, we are intrigued by polls. But today, the polls that have been produced are startling.
First, the most political, 28% of those polled approve of the job performance of President Bush, 71% disapprove, from CNN
Second, an LA Times Bloomberg poll, that indicates that 78% of those polled believe that the nation is in recession.
Third, from the LATimes, 77% believe that the nation is on the wrong track.
However, 4th comparing the Democratic Candidates for President, 46% want Obama, 45% for Clinton.
5th, if there was a matchup between Obama and McCain, Obama would dominate, 47% to 44%.
There are clear indicators that the country is having struggles. That is apparent when you visit the Gas Station, the local Safeway, or talk with friends. Labeling a presidency a complete failure as in a USA Today Poll by 69% of those polled is not happening.
We need to be resilient, dynamic and realize that we can do better. WE not the politicians need to step up.
