8. It's a fact that Progressives were once happy...
...but now they are unhappy.

Undoubtedly, this could be nipping at his poll numbers. I know so many who volunteered on
the Obama campaign--who are very unhappy. They are sickened by what has happened with healthcare
reform--or should I say lack thereof?

I have to say though--if I pollster called me (and I am terribly unhappy to the point of
being very apathetic about voting), I don't know if I'd be able to pull the "disapproval"
lever just yet.

As pissed as I am--I am waiting to see what is next. I imagine that many Progressives
are stating "disapprove", but I bet there are many hangers on--who could sway a poll like
this by about 10 percentage points. If Obama doesn't start kow towing to those who brought
him to the dance--instead of the corporations--those poll numbers will sink farther.
