Obama drives up the fear factor

CNN:

A new national poll indicates that nearly three out of four Americans are scared about the way things are going in the country today.

Seventy-three percent of those questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Monday say they're very or somewhat scared about the way things are going in the United States. That's six points higher than in an October poll.

Nearly eight in 10 say things are going badly in the country, with just 21 percent suggesting that things are going well. The survey also says that three out of four Americans are angry about the way things are going in the country. But three out of four questioned say that things are going well for them personally.

The poll was released a day before President Obama gives a prime-time address before a joint session of Congress.

Obama has been selling gloom and doom to push his "stimulus" monstrosity through Congress adn it is having a negative effect on the pubic attitudes and will have an unstimulating effect on the economy. People made fun of President Bush when he asked Americans to go shopping, but that in fact helped to turn the economy around after the terorist attacks and along with tax cuts ushered in over six years of growth and reducing deficits.

Obama's poor leadership skills are being exposed, regardless of teh excuese made for him by his supporters.
