Barack should get a bounce after Berlin?

From a speech in front of a very famous Nazi war monument that is a bit if a private disgrace to the Germans?

What a novel idea!

{^_^}

America is turning inward to domestic problems, so Obama's emphasis on "the world" will work against him, but mildly. Still has the edge over the warmonger McClone

The trip ain't over

Barack should get a bounce after Berlin.

Rasmussen generic ballot

Check the Rasmussen generic party preference. This is the sixth week that the preference for Democrat Congressional candidates has declined. Where their margin was once almost 20% ahead of the Republicans, it is now down to 9%. Something else is happening here. No one else is debating this, but this will almost certainlu help McCain and it will be interesting to see what happens in House races.
