So much for this being a Progressive revolt against health care and Obama's leadership. this was about Mass politics.

1. It usually has more to do with the state and the individual candidates than anything else.

4. DU seems to believe that electing a Republican
is a signal to go further Left. Can't say I fathom the logic.

3. Agreed - BO is very popular here. This was 100% about Coakley. nt

5. Meaningless...approval of "Obama" is nebulous..
Edited on Tue Jan-19-10 10:08 PM by ddeclue
it's Obama's POLICIES they were revolting against.

His personal approval is actually quite a bit higher, I've seen as high as 75%. His policies (healthcare and the economy) are tanking and are in the mid 40's.

6. He is still popular here in CT too. But I think people are confused and upset over the health care
bill. And even more over the economy.
