He would like something more permanent. But many of his college friends aren't finding work, either, and he's counting on a breakthrough in the economy.</p><p>"We have to do something different," he said, pausing at a downtown street corner on a sweltering afternoon.</p><p>Johnson supported libertarian-leaning Republican Ron Paul, a Texas congressman, for president in 2008, but he's now open to giving Obama a try.</p><p>"I feel like there's better out there, but, honestly, I'm not seeing the better right now," he said. "So he may be the best we have."</p><p>For the president, struggling against 9.1 percent unemployment and a sluggish economic recovery, that might be as good as it gets these days.</p><p>Nationally, his approval ratings hover around or just below 50 percent. But public opinion surveys find that a large majority disapproves of his handling of the economy and even more believe the economy is in a rut. That means the economy will be a dominant factor in determining how many people vote for president next year.</p></div></div></div> Sun, 12 Jun 2011 19:49:39 +0000 quinn esq comment 124056 at http://dagblog.com Ya missed one.
