Despite their grousing about the administration during the Netroots Nation conference, liberal activists and bloggers are relatively happy with President Barack Obama’s performance.
A straw poll conducted by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research showed that 80 percent either approve or strongly approve of the president more than a year before voters head to the polls to decide whether he deserves a second term.
But there are big scary Republicans under your bed! Vote Democrat!

“Are we really the kind of fucking retards that will allow ourselves to be used and thrown away twice? “
Was wrong about the Netroots. Turns out they’re just the same battered-spouse syndrome abuse addicts that traditionally populated the Democratic base. They just had cable modems.
Guess that shoots down my idea that Obama’s actively trying to alienate his following. Looks like one still is born every minute.
