Today's Gallup poll has just 38% of Independents approving of Obama's job performance -- the first time during his presidency that his job approval rating among Independents has fallen below 40% (link at bottom). And how do you think that bodes for the dems in the November midterm elections? Not so positively, methinks. Gosh, it must really chap the hides of partisan dems and repubs everywhere to know that we Independents control the results of elections. And I (and so many fellow Independents) still continue to look very forward to November.
