1. Many Republicans take it as a natural rule that Republicans should win elections for the presidency. If they don't, it is a very deep offence, hitting them at their very basic self-understanding.

2. No matter whether he realised his plans or not, many of his very plans themselves are so unfamiliar and distant from what Americans are used to define as "American political goals" that this is perceived as Obama setting himself outside an "American" context.

3. The high heap of bills and debts Obama has collected on his desktop, does not make him many friends. The Fed is powerless by now. just printing always new more money, is no solution. The debts of the Us already were a disaster before Obama - but he additionally contributed substantially to their total ammount.

4. But all that does not create the stimuli he promised and hoped for when he introduced his spending frenzy. No economic spring. No job miracle. Instead new dark clouds at the horizon, coming closer.

5. His foreign policy changes back and forth between lacking orientation and lacking realism, and heavily biased islamophilia.

And 6.), maybe the most general but still most important point: he has risen so high and so many expectations that he now necessarily falls even deeper. If you raise so stellar expecations, you must fail to meet them necessarily, and then the disappointment necessarily is the bigger.

Obama's misery is pretty much self-made, I think. And I think it is FUBAR. Upcoming elections for congress most likely will show it. I think the Dems will suffer dearly.
