You may be right that the only thing keeping Obama’s polling as high as it is is the continued presence running out to every talk show, Sunday show, and prime time news conference and speech in greater frequency than I can recall any president doing in years (and I can recall going back to the Reagan days). The problem is that he’s not winning converts. He may be playing well with his base, but he needs more than that to get his agenda passed.

That said, continuing to run out there claiming that we’ve got a health care crisis if we don’t act immediately sounds fishy when we’re now months along and the more we find out, the more we find that Obama’s numbers are wrong, the numbers don’t add up, and that taxes will necessarily rise.
