I don't know any Obama supporters who have "turned against him", in California. The last things we want is another republican.

Makes sense. Much better to have a guy like Rick Perry or Mitt Romney as president. That way, they get to choose all the federal judges that the Republicans have been putting holds on, not to mention they get to choose the next SC judges. And Rick gets to FINALLY stop all spending on that climate change scam. Not to mention lifting regulations on our overburdened businesses and dropping taxes on our overtaxed wealthy set, so that they can collectively start investing again and Putting America to Work Again! Hell, maybe we can even start to privatize all those national parks that just cost us an arm and a leg and what do we get for it? Nada! That land is layin' there, not put to good use at all! And take care of Medicare and Medicaid while we're at it, let the private sector work its wonderful magic on the health care system!

Very good thinking by you and your friends. Screw Obama....

NOTE: sarcasm alert.

We didn't vote for the Republican we got.

<<<<<Almost every former Obama supporter I know of has turned against him
here in California>>>>>

Ya, well I'm disappointed for sure too. I voted for him. But he has to show me something and maybe he just doesn't have the leadership ability that I thought he did? ........He darn well shouldn't be vacationing on Martha's Vinyard while the country is in meltdown. But if one of these religiosity guys gets the nomination - which looks more and more likely, what's a person to do?

him when he runs for re-election.<<

I still support him, and will definitely work for his re-election. The other options are far worse.

I don't believe that all he had to do was to be tougher and everything would now be hunky dory.
