When will Americans stop blaming Bush for the economy? When it stops being Bush’s fault.

Washington Post:

A majority of Americans believe that former President George W. Bush is more responsible than President Obama for the current economic problems in the country, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.

Fifty-four percent of respondents said that Bush was more to blame while 29 percent put the blame on Obama; 9 percent said both men deserved blame while 6 percent said neither did. Among registered voters, the numbers are almost identical; 54 percent blame Bush, while 30 percent blame Obama.

Independents, widely considered the most critical voting bloc this fall, continue to blame Bush far more than Obama for the economic troubles. Fifty-seven percent of unaffiliated voters put the blame on the former Republican president, while 25 percent believe the blame rests more with Obama.

Heck, even one in five Republicans say Bush is more responsible than Obama for the state of the economy!

Bush drove this thing into a ditch in 2008 and, ever since, Republicans have been complaining that Obama hasn’t managed to get it out fast enough. Combine this with a poll released yesterday showing that Americans see through GOP obstructionism and we start to see a Republican messaging strategy that failing miserably.

Screw everything up and blame Obama for the mess? We’re not buying it.

And I officially have hope again! So happy to hear that there is a fighting chance of reasonable people voting when it counts so we don’t get ourselves into this mess again. Fingers crossed!!

Maybe the reason Bush fucked up… is because Clinton made it look easy.
