These are not numbers that are compatible with the Democrats doing well in November.

In fact, the only thing that they are compatible with is… pain. The President’s job approval average has been a good rough rule of thumb for some time now; and if you remember 2006 and 2008 then you’re familiar with this particular kind of narrative arc. And, most importantly: there’s no indication that the President is going to suddenly become good at his job between now and Labor Day.
And after Labor Day it will be too late.

Given the conservative response to 2006 and 2008 … largely clenched teeth and regrouping … 2014 and 2016 look ready to give a nice parallel view of the progressives.

I predict a more .. public spectacle.
