Zogby: ‘Chicken Little’ Obama is blowing it

Pollster John Zogby reports in our weekly White House report card that President Obama is coming off one of his worst weeks.

“I am not an ideologue. I call it as I see it. The week President Obama just finished sucked. The Obama administration created the fiscal cliff, has used it as a bludgeon, has ‘Chicken Littled’ about its impact, and now says it is only a bump, not a cliff. Their message now is, ‘never mind.’ Add to that the White House is threatening a venerable journalist like Bob Woodward? This is, no matter how you cut it, a failure in leadership and disingenuous, to boot. Meanwhile, Congress sucks, too. There are no heroes this week. No problems solved. This is not zero-sum. This is zero.”
