Fourteen months into the Obama Recession, it's getting harder for Barack Obama and Congressional Democrats to blame George W. Bush for the economic mess they are largely responsible for.

From POLITICO:

Barack Obama is getting more blame for what voters see as a lagging economy than at any other time in his presidency, according to a new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll out Thursday.

Additionally, 50 percent said Obama does not deserve reelection, with 46 percent saying otherwise.

The poll shows that 26 percent of 1,033 adults polled nationwide said Obama deserves a “great deal” of blame for the nation’s economic problems, double the percentage that said the same last summer, notwithstanding the fact that numerous economic indicators show growth. Half said he deserves at least a “moderate” amount of blame, USA TODAY reported.

Obama though does not bear as much responsibility as former President George W. Bush. Some 42 percent said Bush deserves a “great deal” of blame for the economy.

Other portions of the poll show that Obama’s numbers have dipped across the board.

For the first time since the presidential campaign, less than 50 percent said that Obama does share their values.
