Even Rasmussen

Scott Rasmussen no friend to Democrats but even he, at his polling site, declares today that GOP's partisan circus re: Benghazi likely to be a "bust."  A prime reason:  Most people just don't care that much about foreign policy and are still fixated on the economy.
As has been the case since he first assumed office, President Obama continues to earn better marks on foreign policy than he gets for handling the economy. The latest numbers show that 47 percent give the president good marks on national security, while only 33 percent rate his performance as poor.
With the public largely tuning out foreign policy topics, it will take some pretty spectacular revelations to change those perceptions. Until that happens, it's likely that economic issues and the president's health care law will be the driving issues of the 2014 elections.
