Yeah, I remember reveling in Bush's high approval ratings (he was over 60% for the first two and a half years of his presidency) and that with a hostile press corps. And it really only dropped after the Iraq war. I would also take little satisfaction in his current approval ratings given the fawning press coverage. The bloom will come off the rose eventually, especially as the mainstream media is shown to be AWOL as the alternate media informs the public about the truth.

As for the right track numbers I am sure that is almost entirely a result of the 30% leftists that love what he is doing and another 10% to 15% of voters who are still hoping for the best. All this with the aforesaid fawning press coverage. Any objective observer would conclude that we are not on the right track with higher unemployment, lower stock market, the prospect of $9 trillion in new debt, saber-rattling by North Korea and Iran and so on.
