Washington – President Obama is on a two -week vacation in Martha’s Vineyard, when the wars go crazy in the Middle East and Ukraine, terrorists threaten to overthrow Iraq, and Republicans are on the edge of capturing the Senate.
Throughout the country, the deepening mood of anger and anxiety penetrates the American electorate, and the elections in half in a few months.
And in the brewing of the political civil war among Democrats, Hillary Clinton freed the rapid attack on Obama’s shy foreign policy, calling for a more muscular response to the spread of global terrorism.
The results of the president’s approval remain in the low 1940s and show no signs of improving problems for which voters are bad – from work, income, budget deficits and rashes of disturbing government scandals that revealed an incompetent and corrupt administration.
“There is a lot of anxiety about whether this country is still an opportunity to live in an American dream,” says Democrat Ted Strickland, former governor of Ohio. “Economy is the superior concern, which is not the opportunity for working people.”
Falling into autumn elections, political prospects for Democrats and the presidency of Obama, it dries quickly.
RepublicLican has a political lock at home and had a better chance of taking over the Senate, in which they only need six places for Harry Reid to be a minority leader.
Last week, these opportunities improved significantly when the democratic senator John Walsh from Montana announced that he would not look for elections after the history of the New York Times, who said that he plagiarized parts of the article he wrote in the American war of War College.
According to The Times, six recommendations, which he issued in a foreign policy study, was “adopted almost to the word without assigning a Carnegie endowment for the international peace document on the same subject.”
Democrats will choose a up-to-date candidate next week, but the chances of conducting a reliable campaign and collecting enough money to be competitive, were gloomy. Before breaking the scandal, the polls showed the representative of GOP Steve Daines running before Walsh, double numbers.
This means that the Democrats were for eight ball on at least three fines of their party, but now they were open because of the retirement: Montana, Western Virginia, southern Dakota and to some extent the fourth in Iowa.
So Republicans will only need three places to take control, and there were at least five (and perhaps a dozen) competitive competitions to get them there: Colorado, North Karolina, Louisiana, Alaska and Arkansas.
What will the upcoming intra -war campaign look like when the labor holidays start at the weekend?
Undoubtedly, Obama will be fully involved, but he is no longer the political force he once was. Indeed, many Democrats will not want to be seen with him in the Red States, such as southern Dakota, Louisiana, Western Virginia or Montana to mention only a few.
Democrats desperately sink piles of money in electoral turnout to counteract the wave of GOP, but their attendance will be much below what was in 2012.
The intensity of voters is stronger in GOP and even among independent voters than among democrats. It will be the parent rate on November 4.
Then there will be a message of democrats if they have those that resonate. At the moment it doesn’t look like it.
This year, Obama Ground tested a few carnival Barker playgrounds – including the inequality of income – just to discover that they did not resonate with voters.
Obama’s emphasis is also not doing much better than the recession. Many Americans, including gigantic numbers who have abandoned their labor or who are part -time, but need a full -time job, do not believe it for a while.
Then there is a pessimism factor. Regardless of what he says about the improvement of the economy, he was unable to convince skeptical Americans who believe that economic conditions will be worse in the future.
The last Gallup surveys have announced that trust in the American economy has fallen significantly last month.
One line of attack, which Obama will still have a hammer, will be against Congress for not working in his Threadbare program. Or, he claims, not even offering any own regulations to deal with the country’s problems.
In fact, the Republicans of the Chambers sent over 300 legislation shares in which Reid was postponed by Reid.
Obama wants voters to think that it is the Republicans in the Chamber that they keep things because they threaten to take executive actions, with or without the support of the congress.
Of course, everything is playing. According to Govtrack.us, for decades, most of the bills that the Chamber sent to the Senate was routinely placed in the abyss.
The website’s arrangements: over 50 percent of bills sent to the Senate in 11 of the last 19 congresses did not receive actions before Congress ceased operations and returned home.
Founding fathers, in their infinite wisdom, gave us a long, delayed legislative system filled with many procedural obstacles to stop bad bills from the law. He complains Obama that Congress will not adopt his bad rights.
But what about the GOP election program? This does not approach the attention of the public opinion he deserves.
Partly because national media and ignore republican proposals or distort what they did.
AND Partly because the leadership of GOP did impoverished work, explaining, promoting and selling their ideas.
National television advertising campaign explaining how their ideas would unlock the power of capital creation by tax reform, expand trade, lower gas prices, lowering the deficit and increasing the up-to-date business formation would be a good place to start. Of course, he supported the candidates.
