Obama disapproval on the rise, WH focuses on 2012> The latest round of poll numbers have the administration looking toward 2012

WASHINGTON, DC—The latest Rasmussen Reports shows Obama’s disapproval has risen to 55 percent of likely voters, with 45 percent approving of his job performance. Recent defections include white liberals and some Hispanics, unhappy with the White House challenge to Arizona’s new immigration law.

A recent Politico piece reports the White House has dispatched aides to Florida to clean up Obama’s lack luster oil spill response because that can’t be blamed on Bush—not that some pundits haven’t tried. The administration’s strategy is to keep the Sunshine State in the blue column:

“That battleground state will be a heavy lift. In interviews conducted along the coast, Florida Democrats accused the administration of largely ignoring their calls and letters and complained of a White House that’s out of touch.”

Knowing what lies ahead for the November midterms, the White House is looking to save Obama’s reelection chances and to stave off a democrat challenger as speculation grows that Hillary Clinton is making subtle moves toward a possible 2012 run. That in part, is why the president has embarked on a publicity tour (which makes one wonder if putting himself in front of a recovery message will backfire when there is no recovery).

Obama promised change you can believe in and if the election were held today, it would be change the Chicago community organizer would not welcome.

Dems confront midterm realities, brace for losses Insiders and pundits say a new focus on 2012 means 2010 is being conceded

WASHINGTON, DC—Looking at recent primary races and devastating losses of two key governorships and a liberal stalwart senate seat, democrat leaders are struggling to stave off election loses…..in 2012.

Until now, the democrats thought they would have enough time to turn their collective fortunes around, but Beltway insiders are on the outs with an increasingly angry electorate who are tossing establishment candidates out like yesterday’s trash.

Robert Gibbs July 11^th statement on Meet the Press expresses the conventional wisdom coming from the democrat party—republicans are poised to take the House, and the Senate isn’t far out of reach. Barbara Boxer faces a tough reelection challenge as does Russ Feingold. In congressional races across the country, conservative outsiders are in strong positions to win their race. Republicans need 39 House seats to take the majority, and 10 Senate seats. As of mid-July, there are more than 40 House seats trending toward the GOP and four to five Senate seats look winnable.

Democrats are repeating the painful results of hope and change.

The next shoe to drop? Al Franken and Obama 2008 campaign voter fraud Voter intimidation and fraud are nothing new in the democrat party

NOVEMBER 2008—New allegations are coming from both documentary directors and conservative watchdog groups about shenanigans in the 2008 elections. Clinton supporters charge they were routinely turned away from caucuses by Obama supporters and 341 felons have purportedly been identified as voting illegally in Minnesota—eventually ousting incumbent Norm Coleman by 312 votes.

We here at KP are skeptical of the Obama rumors that allege Hillary supporters were routinely turned away as part of a mass conspiracy and choose at this time to rely on our earlier theorization that an upstart junior senator could out maneuver a Clinton for the democrat nomination without the aid of Clinton fatigue in the media, beltway, and democrat party at large.

But the Franken charges are more troubling in that the senatorial election followed the Gore/Bush model, cherry picking voting districts and filing lawsuits. For those who don’t recall, Norm Coleman was initially declared the winner but the margins were small enough to trigger a recount. And Team Franken kept recounting until the former SNL comedian “won” the seat.

Both instances should be fully investigated and we here at KP are sure action will be taken by the FEC, just like the Philadelphia Black Panther voter intimidation case.

Why Steele’s actions, not his remarks prove he needs to go The RNC ought to be overflowing with cash, its not

WASHINGTON, DC—The Republican National Committee Chairman, Michael Steele has come under fire and being pressured to resign from both parties for his remarks on Afghanistan…..

"Well if [Obama] is such a student of history, has he not understood that, you know, that's the one thing you don't do is engage in a land war in Afghanistan. Alright? Because everyone who has tried over a thousand years of history has failed. And there are reasons for that. There are other ways to engage in Afghanistan without committing more troops." 

Bill Kristol wrote of the comments…..

"At a time when Gen. Petraeus has just taken over command, when Republicans in Congress are pushing for a clean war funding resolution, when Republicans around the country are doing their best to rally their fellow citizens behind the mission, your comment is more than an embarrassment. It's an affront, both to the honor of the Republican party and to the commitment of the soldiers fighting to accomplish the mission they've been asked to take on by our elected leaders."

What Steele said is in large part true—Afghanistan has been the Achilles Heal of many nations—the Soviet Union knew it all too well. But my beef with Steele isn’t about Afghanistan, it’s about cash. The job of the RNC Chair is to raise money and promote candidates. While the Republican Party is certainly making electoral gains, it lags in cash. Why? Last month, the DNC took in $6.6 million and the RNC $6.46 million and in April, the DNC raised $10 million to the RNC’s $7 million.

With the direction of the country led by an unpopular president, enabled by an unpopular democrat congress, the RNC should be awash in cash. If Steele cannot raise money in this climate, he cannot be effective in any situation.
