Liberals Beginning to Realize They’ve Overestimated Obama’s Popularity?

A steady drip, drip, drip of polling data — including a new Battleground poll showing Democrats on the losing side of an “enthusiasm gap” — has started to undermine the carefully maintained perception of Obama’s re-election as inevitable.
