From back in April of this year: Poll: Americans Blame Wasteful Government Spending for Deficit. From Gallup: Americans Blame Wasteful Government Spending for Deficit. And it's quite bipartisan:
Not too few taxes, not tax breaks for the rich, not evil Republicans, and not Bush. Wasteful. Government. Spending. And indeed it is. Ironically, Obama has been spending our money destroying the US economy, not helping get it out of recession.
Perhaps the GOP can grow a spine and put this into their talking points like every single day. Also they ought emphasize that Obama voted against raising the debt ceiling in 2006 calling it a failure of leadership. It should be the beginning of every statement that they make.
