I mean, I highly suspect that the benefit of the doubt, good faith, and banding together that everyone did after 9/11 for Dubya wouldn't be afforded in any way to Obama, but if my memory serves, the worst terrorist attack in American history actually IMPROVED the ratings to a career-best for the last guy.
Just interesting.

The situations are completely different. 9/11 was a sneak attack that many Americans didnt think could happen. It was the first time in 50 years that we had been attacked on our soil. We as a country banded together because we all felt violated not all together different than perhaps how the country felt after Pearl Harbor. Now that we know that the threat is real and possible the govt in charge will take the heat and that wont change regardless of who is in charge.
