This week, the Senate, by a slim margin assured by opportunist Democrats up for re-election, rejected the nomination of Debo Adegbile, another radical Obama nominee, to head the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department.

The feckless Democratic senators who broke ranks with his royalness are probably responding to the latest polling data showing that President Obama has reached his all-time low for job performance approval. The Fox News poll found that just 38 percent approve of the president’s job performance and that 54 percent disapprove. Prior to this poll, his worst rating was 40/55 percent in November 2013.
