Townhall.com’s political director lays out a damning list of numbers which show that Americans aren’t buying Obama’s elixir any longer.  While some feel the economy IS recovering (WRONG) they feel like Barack Obama is not the reason and that he and his handlers are still leading America’s economy into quicksand.

Bottom line?  Women working inside and outside of the home…aren’t buying Obama now or for the future.

For instance from Townhall:

(1) A new Gallup poll shows President Obama trailing Mitt Romney  (Romney 50 Obama 46),  head-to-head, and tied with Rick Santorum.  (2) USA Today’s latest numbers numbers indicate that a majority of Americans  (be sure and look at this one)  believe Obama political views are “too liberal.”  (3) The president’s approval rating has again dunked underwater.  And that’s all before we get around to Quinnipiac’s latest information:

American voters say 54 – 43 percent that the economy has begun to recover, a 51-point shift in opinion since September 1, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. This is a reversal from a September 1 survey in which voters said 68 – 28 percent the economy was not in recovery. But the improved voter confidence does not help President Barack Obama who gets a negative 45 – 49 percent job approval rating, compared to negative 44 – 50 percent rating November 23. Voters say 50 – 45 percent that President Obama does not deserve reelection, compared to 48 – 45 percent saying no in November.

In this poll, Obama gets notably poor marks for his handling of the deficit (32 percent approve/61 percent disapprove), and healthcare (40/56).  A majority (52/39) of overall voters, including independents (50/38), believe Congress should repeal Obamacare.  A similar majority hopes the Supreme Court will overturn the law.  In a recent column, the great Charles Krauthammer built a three-pronged case that the president’s signature legislation robs Americans of liberty:

The Constitution Is Adjustable...According To Obama Administration

This constitutional trifecta — the state invading the autonomy of religious institutions, private companies and the individual citizen— should not surprise. It is what happens when the state takes over one-sixth of the economy. In 2010, when all this lay hazily in the future, the sheer arrogance of Obamacare energized a popular resistance powerful enough to deliver an electoral shellacking to Obama. Yet two years later, as the consequences of that overreach materialize before our eyes, the issue is fading. This constitutes a huge failing of the opposition party whose responsibility it is to make the opposition argument.

One could make a guess that the inexperienced and desperate White House is scrambling right now to find an issue, an economic indicator, or a miracle…that will make the President look like he’s a success.
