30. "The remarkable consistency of President Obama’s job approval numbers"

is very Encouraging for the majority of sanity in this country, SKP. Those whose only job it is .. to take down the President are failing. And, that looks good for the upcoming elections.

Here's to being even stronger in Nov 2014.

New numbers from Pew Research Center tell that story. Forty nine percent of respondents approved of the job President Obama while 43 percent disapproved. Those numbers are remarkably unchanged from where Obama stood in a January Pew poll despite the fact that the past five and a half months have seen the failure of the White House’s attempt to change gun laws, the IRS scandal, evidence of an improving economy, the NSA revelations and plenty of other “major” news events.
