During his presidency, every year that Barack Obama's job approval rating has gone up in January, he has followed it up with an increase in February. This year was no different. After impressive gains to start the year off, Obama followed up with smaller (but still substantial) gains in February. As with last month, this is clearly visible on the new chart.
Are we witnessing the end of the Republican Party? That's a pretty stunning question to ask, but we're living through a pretty stunning presidential nomination fight, so it can no longer be avoided or ignored.
It shouldn't surprise anyone to hear that the Democrats could have made a bold visionary change, but instead decided to tinker around the edges of a problem. While I'm glad they're attempting anything new at all, I am also once again disappointed in them for missing a golden opportunity.
