So just how poorly do the democrats have to govern to reach the point where hardcore "big C" Conservatives are the favorites heading into 2010? #2 I find that "reactionary" comment amusing considering you're one of the people suggesting Bush should be tried for war crimes.

The people are always a step ahead of the government and this first year of Obama + the liberal House & Senate have been awful. The people were sold Obama as some kind of wiz kid saviour but he's inexperienced, he's egotistical, and he is seemingly uninterested in anything other than Healthcare and that isn't America's most pressing need at the moment. Now 10% unemployment would be a DREAM scenario for a place like France but in the US it's unacceptable. If you add the unemployment together with the foreclosure rates (Obama is now the sole leader in foreclosures in a year) and the money the Democrats put into TARP and used to bailout various companies you can see why Conservatives are coming back with a vengence...just for a frame of reference it took Republicans over a decade (1994-2006) to wear out their welcome as the majority party.
Bush is entirely to blame for both the economic meltdown and the Iraq war. He's the guy who made up a bunch of bs to get his illegal war on and the guy who deregulated the US financial system back to 1928.

France's unemployment rate is lower than America's.

Bush is responsible for every single dollar of the TARP fund. Obama hasn't added a single dollar to the more than seven trillion dollars of taxpayer money that the socialist war criminal Bush used to guarantee the losses of the socialist bankers, Bush basically guaranteed all losses at 100 cents on the dollar before Obama took office.

And the GOP is gaining support again because America is chock full of dumb motherfunkers who can't remember what happened a year ago.
