This week we’ve been blogging about Washington’s ideas that don’t make sense and don’t work. Today, we look at the impact these policies are having on how the American people view the Democratic Party:

Support for the Democratic Party has fallen dramatically.  As the article notes:

“In December’s survey, for the first time, less than half of Americans approved of the job Barack Obama is doing, marking a steeper first-year fall for this president than his recent predecessors. Also for the first time this year, the electorate is split when asked which party they would like to see in charge after the 2010 elections. For months, a clear plurality favored Democratic control.”

Duh! The Democrats pursue policies that don’t make any sense and the public turns on them. Maybe they should try something else.
