Day 266 – Change You Can’t Believe in

Scott Rasmussen on CNN said that the polls indicate that the honeymoon is over. That’s probably about right. Jackass is heading below 50% in approval ratings and has an approval index of about -10. The star has fallen to earth.

Pitching hope and change was not difficult last year. Clintons or Bushess ran the country for the last two decades. People were feeling the effects of a bad economy and John McCain was an ally of the president. Jackass was friends with nobody we knew. All his affiliations with criminals were considered unfair to bring up as it might have cost him the election. Thanks, mainstream “news.”

Now, his inexperience is catching up with him. He’s the guy at the strip club who spent his last dollar. Everyone loved him while he was giving it away, but now the bar tab is due and his friends aren’t so friendly anymore. Relying on disgruntled people for votes only works until you’re elected. Invariably, they become disgruntled with you next. The wheels are in motion. The question is how far will he fall?
