Hot Air - Obama loses majority support -
Rasmussen’s presidential tracking polls detecting slippage in support for Barack Obama first, and now they report that his approval ratings have fallen below 50% for the first time. Driving the indicator, as it has all along, is the departure of independents from the president’s banner.
Fox News this morning had a poll showing President Obama's approval at 53% with most of the disapproval coming from his handling of the economy. Weirdly however 61% of people believe that our current economic situation is Bush's fault. Maybe he will be able to play the it's Bush's fault game for the next 3.5 years.
Instapundit has a vampire book coming. I am so sick of Vampires when are we going to get some cyberpunk or stories again.

The Belmont Club - The Strong Horse -
Michael Totten tried to put his finger on the pulse of Iraq. Michael wanted to understand what Iraqis said when Americans were not in the room, the better to figure out what would happen when the US left and sought out an Army source, an Iraqi whose candidness was next best thing.
...
MJT: It looks like the Iraqi government is going to throw us out, though.
Sayid: Believe me, Maliki is a dictator in Iraq. If the American government doesn’t watch him, he will become a dictator in no time. In four or five years, he will look like Saddam Hussein. Keep on him. He wants to rule. He wants to have the power. Everyone who works in his office are his relatives. He will bring all his tribe.
MJT: That’s how it is everywhere.
Sayid: No, no. In the States?
MJT: I mean, in this region. It’s like that everywhere in this region.
Sayid: In this area? Yeah. It is. Except Israel and Lebanon. They have democracy. But the rest of them? Syria? Damn. [Laughs.] Iran, too.
So are we going to be back in Iraq in 2015? Bears watching
