Regardless of Obama's popularity in gaining reelection the real issue is going to be how much ground the Democrats lose in 2010 and 2012 in Congress. Despite Obama's ability to remain popular despite his programs losing steam, Congress which is already very unpopular will surely be taking a big share of the blame. With The Dems having total control it isn't surprising that the vast majority of stimulus money has been deferred beyond 2009.
