Are Blacks & Liberals Ditching President Barack Obama Over Economy?

Are blacks ditching President Obama? A recent Washington Post-ABC poll found that number of African Americans who believe the president’s actions have helped the economy has dropped from 77 percent in October to just over half of those surveyed. The same poll also found that the number of liberal Democrats who strongly support Obama’s record on jobs plunged 22 points from 53 percent last year to 31 percent. The reality is that neither party has done anything to help people on Main Street stay afloat. We are in dire straits and the blame should not be solely attributed to President Obama. Congress failed us.
