I don’t know why it is, but we get our asses kicked in August every single year. I’d have to check the data, but it seems like our polling ratings crater in August on a consistent basis. It happened to Dukakis, Kerry, and Obama during their presidential runs (I can’t remember if it happened to Clinton or Gore). It happened in 2002 in the run-up to the vote on invading Iraq. It happened last year during the Tea Parties. And it happened last month. It seems like the Republicans actually prepare for the recess and the Democrats just go on vacation. Whatever it is, it’s gotta stop.
