>>> Obama's job performance ratings will catch back up with his likeability factor.

Could be, you never know.

But it is very difficult to envision. Everything he's done has turned to shit. The one thing he's done that people seem to approve of is the Afghanistan policy, which is essentially the same as what GWB had planned to do (except for the deadline).

People are furious about health care. Everyone now acknowledges the efforts to close GTMO are a mistake. As the trials of terrorists in NYC move closer, the protests are going to grow; people are furious about it. The massive spending -- a trillion dollars in pork bbl spending has angered all but the most extreme liberals. And the chronic failure to take responsibility for his actions, constantly laying blame on his predecessor, makes people feel as though they've elected an adolescent.

A lot can happen in the next three years. But he has to first stop digging, and that does not seem to be happening 1 year into the presidency.
