Maybe Americans are less patient with complete incompetence than we are. But
this article that traces the changes in public opinion on relative merits of Republicans and Democrats on various issues gives cold comfort to the party that was victorious a few months ago. The cack-handedness in handling the health system
nationalization reform and Obama's ludicrous but ongoing intervention in the Gates saga cannot have helped.
And the Rasmussen Daily Presidential Tracking Poll isn't good reading for the president either.
