WASHINGTON – Millions of people jobless. Billions of dollars in bailouts. Trillions of dollars in U.S. debt. And yet, for the first time in years, more Americans than not say the country is on the right track.

In a sign that Barack Obama has inspired hopes for a brighter future in the first 100 days of his presidency, an Associated Press-GfK poll shows that 48 percent of Americans believe the United States is headed in the right direction — compared with 44 percent who disagree.

While the conservatives and Repugs, whining incessantly, with brazen hypocrisy, and nipping at the Magik Negro's ankles, are off track into the ditch.

What is the hysterical right going to do when we haven't imploded into a communist totalitarian state in 4 years, and all of the over-the-top predictions of doom and gloom are played endlessly during the election to show how crazy the right wing is in this country?

You guys keep it up, please.

Polls are infallible. and should not be questioned!Your practice is to try to deny any poll that you can't accept politically. It's fun to watch.

Don't be stupid. That strategy has done them well the last two election cycles..

I almost feel sorry for conservatives.

Same here.

That feeling generally goes away when I read anything by Aggie HoopsFan, Yonivore, or Wild Cobra.

Then I simply thank God that they and people who tend to think like they do are so reality challenged that it is obvious to anybody with some common sense that they should be kept as far away from the reins of power as possible.

Palin 2012!
