I heard a local radio wag this AM talking about some of this and he made a great analogy: this is like offering the American people a choice between a milk shake and an arsenic shake. It is so PAINFULLY obvious to an sentient person that cap and trade and the looming healthcare "reform" are nothing but gigantic taxation programs. But the Obamistas trudge forward...we will need to see the number in the chart below stay negative and start growing before there will be any reconsideration. We are dealing with idealogue statists who in the face of "facts" remain undeterred.

At the moment, many unhappy with cap and trade are probably laying their disapproval at Congress' feet, not Obama's--so it is not really showing up in his numbers (although it should). The tie/slight negative on approval/disapproval has been a fact on Rasmussen for a few weeks now--it needs to move more negative and fast. If it stays here at this level, I think it will only make the White House move more quickly on their agenda "while there is still time," not pull back from it. Besides, so many other polls seem to be much more favorable to him, so they are probably not too worried yet.
