Might just go lower, since he's publicly busted for not telling the truth by SCJ Alito....
Even without Alito calling him on it, picking on the Supremes does not play well with anyone who isn't a rabid Jackass. It conveys petulance, not resolution.
And I'm sure it will be remembered the next time the administration has one of its pet issues come before the Court......Publicly dissing SCOTUS with them sitting right in front of you does not yield good long term karma.......doc
Looking at the clip, it looked like Bader-Ginsburg wanted to crawl under her seat. She's a rather diminuitive woman anyway, but after that comment by Lord Zero, she seemed to shrink even more.
Gotta love that POTUS is encouraging his hacks to pass more unconstitutional laws. What an asshat.
Thinking the same thing. That health care bill, anyone?
The payback from the Supremes is going to be spectacular, I would bet.
As coach would say, "Oh my."No post SOTU bump.
Looking only at interviews conducted on the two nights following the speech, it is clear that the President enjoyed a bounce in the polls and that the bounce came from members of his own party. On the morning of the speech, 50% of Democrats Strongly Approved of the President’s performance. On the two nights following the speech, that number jumped to 65%. There was essentially no change among Republican and unaffiliated voters. This could suggest that the President’s “pivot†following the Republican upset in Massachusetts is a pivot towards energizing his party base more than reaching out for support from unaffiliated voters. In Massachusetts and the two Governor’s races last fall, a lack of enthusiasm from Democrats contributed to the party’s defeats. Polling conducted after the speech also found that most voters do not believe the President’s assertions about tax cuts, economic growth, or job creation. Democrats tend to give him the benefit of the doubt. Republicans and unaffiliated voters do not.

Why can't 'O' have a speech today? He needs to talk to his people ...KC
His rating may go up too, now that he's agreed to move KSM's trial out of NYC.
In Election 2010 Senate races, Democratic incumbents are behind in Nevada, Colorado, Arkansas and Pennsylvania. In California, Indiana, and Wisconsin, Democratic incumbents are in potentially competitive races. A commentary by Rhodes Cook suggests that “For Democrats, It’s Time to Worry.†Republicans lead open-seat races in Delaware, Florida, Kentucky, Missouri, New Hampshire, North Dakota, and Ohio. Democrats lead in Connecticut, and the race is close in Illinois. Republican incumbents lead in North Carolina and Iowa, A commentary by political analyst Larry Sabato, suggests that if the election were held today, “the (59-seat) Democratic majority in the Senate would be reduced to just 52 seats.â€
This is the result of the three day bump from the Republicans meeting with him and the SOTU speech.
