RASMUSSEN REPORT: Majority of Americans now see Bush as Between Best and Worst Presidents
After exposure to nearly two years of Barack Obama and "change no one believes in", it is interesting to see how the image of George W. Bush is experiencing a resurgence among Americans. President Obama practically had a free pass upon his inauguration because he had inherited two wars and one of the worst recessions since the Great Depression. However, Obama squandered his opportunity and "free pass" from an adoring media as his agenda reflected one that was hidden in stealth from the voters during the 2008 campaign and did not address the most important issue to voters, which was economic recovery and a return to relative full employment. A majority of voters during the 2008 campaign shockingly believed that Obama would promote lower taxes than Senator John McCain.
Instead, the focus on "Obamacare", International Apology Tour, complete disdain for the Republican opposition alongside an arrogant and corrupt House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, George W. Bush doesn't look so bad to an increasing amount of voters by comparison. The rejection of Obamunism at the polls in the form of the "Shellacking" and the disdain the G20 leaders showed Obama and his economic policies is creating the type of sentiment among the voters that calls for "change". Ironically, it was this sentiment that swept Obama over McCain into the White House in 2008. People are being reminded of what it is like to have decisive leadership instead of the soft, morally relative non-leadership of Obama. Regardless of what one thinks of the decisions themselves, people long for the type of leader that Bush was versus what they see in Obama.
Rasmussen Reports: As George W. Bush tours the country promoting his new memoir, “Decision Points,” voters are a bit less critical of the former president than they’ve been in previous years.
