“August was the cruellest month for Obama” By Rupert Cornwell

“Yes, it really was only eight months ago that he entered the White House with a tail wind of goodwill that no incoming American president in a couple of generations had enjoyed. Today the reverse is true. No new president in half a century has descended to earth with such a bump. July was a bad enough month but August was positively brutal. Unruly town-hall meetings across the country revealed the depths of public suspicion about his signature issue, health-care reform.”
