Pres. Obama's poll numbers put him about the same place that Pres. Carter was at this stage in his presidency. We can only hope that this trend continues. I, for one, can only hope that he turns out to be the type of leader that Pres. Carter was.
Yes there wil be voter backlash until the next candidate promises "pie in the sky" then it will be forgotten.
Obama will never be held accountable for his decisions. Media will protect him. They have too much at stake to allow him to be labeled as a failure. They are the ones who chose him in the first place.
