CNN - Politics: Reports on its Poll of Polls, the article finds the following, " ..49% of Americans say they approve of the job the president's doing in office, with 44% saying they disapprove of his performance in the White House. ".
Lets Get Real:
Of late folks of 2nd Term Presidents its only been Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton that have great ends to their terms, the Gallup Poll had Reagan on 63% approval, while Clinton was on 66%. The upside for Reagan was that his VP, Bush 41 was his successor, it was seen a third Reagan term, while Bill Clinton was replaced by the son of the man he defeated for the Oval, Bush 43. At the end of the Bush 43 second term, President Bush was on 34% approval in the Gallup Poll. Thus folks you might ask why note this with a blog post, the power to control Congress comes from the polls folks, if POTUS is down and is not running again then the House and Senate might want some distance from his policies, also Obama does not have a horse in the 2016 race, its not going to be VP Biden, that was the mistake that both Bush 43 and Obama have done, your agenda can only be seen as successful if it is confirmed by the voters after your term is over, one can postulate that if the Obama ratings dive then the Clinton Camp will make sure there is great distance between Hillary Clinton and President Obama, that is the nature of the game folks. If your voters love you, as with the case with Reagan or trust you on the economy as with Clinton you can get away with a major scandal, if your not the above your in trouble, go ask Bush 43 about that, also Bush 41 when the economy is bad, and it was not as bad in the at the start of the 1990s. Thus Obama should enjoy these days folks, it could get tricky later, the liberal uber media elite will move on, that is the American election cycle, also there always a chance of scandal or a foreign policy disaster, Syria or Iran folks. Watch this space folks.
