Obama's Internet Buzz Slumps With Economy

I just want to share something about the current crisis America and beyond is facing. If the current government of America won't work for moral restoration then there will be no economic restoration either. God is too much offended already with the millions and milions of abortion that's good enough to send equal punishment for killing sinless children.
The worst is yet to come. So, wake-up people of America, repent and return to the Lord.

You betcha! The "buzz" is going to continue to be unfavorable because people are going to start seeing the empty suit that has been elected. Everybody was all caught up in the hype and now when it's time to get down to business, it looks like "The One" doesn't have a clue about how to run a country. All he is interested in is shifting us to a secular, big government. You know why? Because he truly hates the America that has been and wants to change the USA to a European-lite socialist country. Just like his wife, he hates the America he grew up in. How dare he? The United States is the greatest civilization to have existed and he wants to change that. The Tea Parties popping up all over the country is proof positive that he will have a fight on his hands.

Zeta Interactive should stick to plotting graphs and avoid drawing conclusions.
After more than a year of the most exciting election to replace one of the most misguided presidency, it's not a surprise that the majority is relieved and most of the whining is from the die-hard Conservatives.

Very technical term - as always - the media comes up with jargon with no specific definition.
Obama's fans are laying low, letting him work in peace. The unconstructive ranters are out as they always have been - so their numbers have remained constant. Worldwide, leaders are pleased, and the "buzz" in other countries continues. Look at the response he received in Canada when just there for part of a day in the freezing cold. He is VERY popular overseas.
There is also less need for "buzz". We are SEEING what he is doing, not speculating. After the election it was a huge celebration - as it should have been. Parties are louder. Now is time for work. Most offices are pretty quiet.
People are very focused right now on the economy and nervous about their jobs. It is time for doing, not "buzzing". This in no way implies he is less or more popular. It's a real stretch to extrapolate "buzz levels" into ratings.

What a load of crap and you know it.He is stille a very very popular president. Its no secret about the buzz. Every presidents buzz gos down after the excitment of the elections.The only buzz that has gone up is that of cry babys Rush Limpbuh and no one listens to him except when he makes unpatriotic statments like wishing the president fails.Had Chris Mathews said that about good ole Dubha Bush you all would be screaming treason from the roof of the white house.give me a break.
