The State of Our Union is Pretty Good

Now that the mid-terms and all the gloom and doom talk have faded, people are realizing something- President Obama has done a good job. In fact, his approval is back up to 50%. That's no shock though, given the state of our nation. His former opponent, Mitt Romney, promised us unemployment under 6% and gas under $3, and well, President Obama crushed that. He did it in half the time too.

As we step further away from the partisan fights, the reality, that the President has done well, is setting in. Much like with Bill Clinton, at some point simple statistics set in. Hopefully, unlike with Clinton, this approval decides the election of his successor.
