Could Obama be losing the message war? It looks that way, judging by the polls. He’s less popular today than George W. Bush was at this point in his presidency, despite the media’s hostility towards Bush. Expect Obama to really start ramping up his ongoing campaign.

    Kate, thanks for that link. There are some frightening things going these days. Why is they keep reminding me of that little story ’1984′?? (George Orwell)
