That didn't take too long

It's been almost 10 months since the Democrats were given absolute super majority control of the executive, the house of representatives and the senate.

Almost 10 months of record spending, record deficits, record weakness abroad and record social experimentation, all with less than majority public support.

The result?

"Republicans have moved ahead of Democrats by 48% to 44% among registered voters in the latest update on Gallup's generic congressional ballot for the 2010 House elections, after trailing by six points in July and two points last month."

The Clinton / Gore policies of balanced budgets, surpluses applied to paying off the national debt, peace abroad and slow but incremental social change at home were wildly popular, and would be today. Why were they rejected by Obama, Pelosi, Reid et al. in favor of radical "change"?
