Obama the polarizer
The Rasmussen Daily Presidential Tracking Poll shows that strong supporters of Obama are growing again -- from 28% to 34% in the last week, now at highest level since June 24. I think this reflects two things: the stock market boom and the reaction of Obama supporters to the reports of town hall anti-obama protestors.
The country is getting very polarized, very fast.
Thomas Lifson adds:
Obama, a disciple of Saul Alinsky, probably relishes the polarization. He pushes a radical agenda, and mobilizes his forces to fire up and “punch back twice as hard.” He thrived on confrontation as a community organizer, and that is where his instincts apparently lie.
