what a bizarre world these people live in

Scarborough and Halperin Claim Obama's Poll Numbers Are Down Because He's Too Polarizing
---
From Morning Joe, Nov. 24, 2009, Joe Scarborough and Mark Halperin think Obama's poll numbers have dropped because he's too polarizing. Of course by "polarizing" they mean pretending that he's governed from the left, which he hasn't. They go on to compare him to Palin and say he's only playing to his base like she is. What's up is down and down is up...and round and round we go with these two. Obama's numbers are down because he's ignoring his base and not following through on his campaign promises, not because he’s run too far to the left.

I don't know how anyone can say that Obama has been too liberal in his governing, but then I guess reality matters to me...
