Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

POSTSCRIPT: The conventional wisdom is that Obama has experienced a lot of ups and downs over the past few months, but that’s not true in perhaps the most important sense.

As this chart from the Jed Report shows, in national polls, Obama closed a 21-percentage-point gap with Clinton during the winter, overtook her in February, and has remained ahead of her ever since.

He’s never had a month-to-month decline.
