Must-Reads: How Low Can Obama’s Numbers Go?
EmailSherrod fallout: Vilsack apologizes, but does Sherrod want to return to the USDA? She certainly wants to hear from Obama.
How low can they go? Obama’s poll numbers hit all-time low.
As Petraeus beefs up Afghan strategy, David Sanger takes a look at the debate over whether the war is worth it—a debate that is “unwinding one summer earlier than [Obama] had hoped.”
Dems divided over whether to extend the Bush era tax cuts.
I can attest to this: “Bare-bones service,” increased fees and a stressful flying experience has lead to rude passengers. But it turns out that “Golden age of flight” wasn’t all that golden.
As Australia goes, so goes America? E.J. Dionne ponders the question down under.
Obama: 'Now Is the Time For Common Sense Action' 
Romney Takes Aim at Conservatives
I think the animus against George W. Bush was more potent in 2008 than it is likely to be in 2010 or 2012. A considerable proportion of Americans will continue to dislike Bush and his policies but others will feel that ascribing Democratic shortcomings to his ruinous legacy is, in Jeb Bush’s words, an excuse of “the dog ate my homework” kind.

If MSM will ever stop protecting him and INVESTIGATE and REPORT what is actually happening, they will go way lower. I won’t hold my breath waiting….

Obama ’09 vs Obama ’10 looks pretty grim.
Obama vs. just about any Republican will probably look much better.
If the GOP continues to make Democratic House candidates run with Nancy Pelosi, they have a real problem — unless the Democrats point out they’re running against John Boehner.
As the Sherrod case reminds us, it’s all about context and timing.
