Not good news for Obama and his Democrats:
Forty five percent (45%) of U.S. voters say it is likely President-elect Obama or one of his top campaign aides was involved in the unfolding Blagojevich scandal in Illinois, including 23% who say it is Very Likely.
Just 11% say it is not at all likely, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey taken Thursday and Friday nights.
That 11% needs to be located and isolated – they’ve got to be, oh, robots or space aliens or people lacking the wit to not stick their fingers in electric sockets. Very strange that anyone could say that Illinois Senator Obama is not at all likely to be involved in a scandal involving Illinois Governor Blagojevich regarding finding a replacement for Illinois Senator Obama.
Anyways – the bloom is really getting off the rose here. Now, to be sure, as January 20th approaches we’ll be back on full messiah mode in the MSM coverage of Obama, but that will mostly amount to preaching to the choir. For those not dimwitted in their Obama enthusiasm, the concept that Obama really represents change is at a discount. For Obama to really get past this and set a new course he’s going to have to make a dramatic break with this own side on the matter of corruption, and thus far we’ve seen no indicator that Obama has the courage to step that far out of line.
It will be a pity if Obama fails this basic test – a pity, but entirely expected by all of us who warned against Obama. Still, one does hope and pray that some how, some way, Obama will awaken from the liberal stupor and realize that doing the right thing will work.
