10 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoAre the liberals abandoning Obama in his hour of need?
Obama is now being critized by the liberal press for the oil spill, poor job numbers and corruption cases of Sestak and Romanoff.
From Rush Limbaugh to "The Daily Show," the president has found himself taking hits from every side. And according to University of Virginia political analyst Larry Sabato, "When a president gets it from both sides, it's probably because he deserves it.
