From Rasmussen:

Nearly half of U.S. voters (49%) say the United States should not close the terrorist prison camp at Guantanamo Naval Base in Cuba, but the identical number (49%) also say Barack Obama is Very likely to close it in the first year of his presidency.

Only 32% of voters say the Guantanamo prison camp should be closed, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. One-out-of-five (19%) are undecided.

So, Obama doesn't have a mandate on Guantanamo. He doesn't have a mandate on the Big Three bailout. And he doesn't have a mandate on offshore drilling or nuclear power.

Only an outspoken minority are on his side on these issues. Yet I suspect that Obama is so blinded by his own ego, and the Democrats have so convinced themselves of having received a mandate, that they will completely disregard the will of the people on these important matters.

Oh well, they have to mess up somehow in order to hand back power in 2012.
