WASHINGTON - As the young Obama administration spends trillions of dollars in its effort to turn around the nation’s economy and revive the U.S. auto industry, the American public is growing concerned about the size of the budget deficit and the government’s intervention into the private sector, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds.





Nearly seven in 10 have serious reservations about the federal government’s ownership stake in General Motors. Almost 60 percent say that President Obama and Congress should worry more about keeping the deficit down — even if that means it will take longer for the economy to recover. And fewer than half of Americans have confidence in the president’s policies to improve the economy.

Obama remains a popular figure in the poll. But these numbers on the deficit and the government’s intervention seem to mark a new period for the administration, as the public moves from welcoming his inauguration and first days in office to examining his initial actions as president.

I think a lot of people are in denial. This is the messiah that they voted for, and they just don't want to throw in the towel just yet. I think a lot of people that voted for him are learning exactly what they have now done.....

he has no shot as did no other who was "elected".

I posted way before the election and I stand by it and actually am more sure NOW that ANYONE , up to the REAL messiah was destined to go down as one of the worst prez of ALL times.


Many will think of this time as the good ole days within 3-4 years.
Just as many now still think of 2-3 years ago as the good ole days.


The Feds hand is being slowly forced , this thing is more and more like '29 every day except the bubble cycle was MUCH larger this time.


When I look at the people being polled anymore , I have to agree with W,when he said "I don't govern by polls". He had that right it seems.

I wonder if Cheney was polled, I think he said at one time , deficits don't matter!
