Obama Losing His Box Office Appeal
From
NationalJournal.com:
Pres. Obama is the best fundraiser the Dem Party has, but his drawing power is way down from its peak during the '08 campaign.
Obama is heading to MO and NV today to raise money for Sec/State Robin Carnahan (D), running for an open Senate seat, and Senate Maj. Leader Harry Reid.
But Carnahan's campaign wasn't able to completely sell out the Folly Theater, where Obama will appear for a grassroots event on Carnahan's behalf, at the prices they wanted. Tickets once priced at $250 are now going for $99, while $35 tickets are half off.
National Review points out:
...Let’s be fair; it’s only natural to charge half price when Obama’s job approval is roughly half what it once was.
Also note the name, “Folly Theater.” The Foolishness Arena was booked, apparently.
Republicans are chuckling over BHO's drop in appeal. Dr. Jack Wheeler, however,
warns of an October surprise:
...I have lost count now of the number of predictions being made of a GOP "tsunami" in November. Serious political analysts, soberly and without hyperbole, are saying that Dem losses in the House, Senate, Governor's mansions, et al, are likely to be of "historic" proportions.
And every one of them unfailingly comes with a caveat, something along the lines of, "barring some huge unexpected disaster for the GOP." Now, if you were Rahm Emanuel, what would that caveat cause you to think about?...

Many of us who oppose the present administration's policies are banking on November 2010 to turn things around. But is the GOP up to that challenge? And what could that "October surprise" be?
