1. The Dems, who have a majority in Congress, still kowtowing to the Right.

2. Other: The fact that the ECONOMY, JOBS, and corporate structure should be #1 on everyone's agenda
and instead we are talking about Palin, mosques, and vacation "optics."

3. Just picking a nit, but the oil spill was hardly Bush's fault. It wasn't Obama's fault either.

7. Hmmm....
In my opinion the EIGHT years of Bush's deregulation of the oil industry, lack of oversight by the MMS, rubber stamping drilling permits that contained no real spill clean-up back up plan, etc. did contribute to the mess we're in now.

6. Other: corporate capture and domination of government on all levels and branches
The insane radical regressive efforts to reverse Constitutional protections is right there though and walks hand in hand with my primary issue.

8. Other: crappy push polls such as this one.
I notice you left off the choice "the failure of the president to forcefully lead on many key issues."

His lack of leadership is what I'm most concerned about. How he could fall for the GOP's trap on deficit reduction and refuse to spend more to create jobs now is unfathomable. His lack of leadership on gay issues, on war issues, on jobs, on Bushco wrongdoings, on the drug war, and on Wall Street has been appalling. He's the guy who made promises he hasn't kept, or even attempted to keep.

I'm always mad at the right wing, at their toads and at their spokespeople. I don't expect anything of them. I do expect elected Democrats to act as if they are loyal to the ideals of Democrats, from the president down to the local officials.

9. Obama's campaign promises: Kept 121, In theWorks 240
The Obameter tracks Obama's campaign promises (on the right side of the page): http://politifact.com/truth-o-meter/

Saying that Obama has not kept promises or even attempted to keep them is really way off the mark.
