Here is the president that has the Democrats so spooked

In true lyin' ass boyfriend, "I'll fight the big one next time, baby, I promise" orm, the Democrats are going to let the Alito nomination sail through without a fight. Buzzflash is even reporting that the Great Democratic Hope, Barack Obama, is opposing a filibuster.

Can this party be MORE out of touch with the American people?

Here is how America thinks of the president that has the Democrats wetting their collective pants in fear:

A majority of Americans said the presidency of George W. Bush has been a failure and that they would be more likely to vote for congressional candidates who oppose him, according to a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll.

Fifty-two percent of adults said Bush's administration since 2001 has been a failure, down from 55 percent in October. Fifty- eight percent described his second term as a failure. At the same point in former President Bill Clinton's presidency, 70 percent of those surveyed by Gallup said they considered it a success and 20 percent a failure.

In a poll conducted in January of 2002, after Bush was president for one year, 83 percent of those surveyed said his presidency was a success.

In the new poll, conducted Jan. 20-22, fifty-one percent of those surveyed said they would be more likely to vote for congressional candidates who do not support Bush's policies.

The percentage of Americans who called Bush ``honest and trustworthy'' fell 7 percentage points in the last year to 49 percent, the poll found.

The new poll also found that 62 percent of Americans said they are ``dissatisfied'' with ``the way things are going'' in the U.S., unchanged from a December survey. The percentage of ``dissatisfied'' Americans reached its peak in October of 2005 when 68 percent of those surveyed agreed.

The survey interviewed 1,006 U.S. adults and has a margin of error of 4.5 percentage points. For the questions about whether Bush's presidency is a success, about 500 U.S. adults were surveyed and the margin for error is plus or minus 5 percentage points.

I hear John Kerry is supporting a filibuster. Of course, John Kerry wants to run for president again. He doesn't understand that if he had done his damn job as a candidate in 2004, we wouldn't even be IN this mess.
