As about on how those sanctions do really affect people here. Putin's media blame all his internal economical faults on the USA. So his rating just growing here, along with the hate to Obama and the USA, because the biggest % of people (like in any country) are not smart enough to analyze the situation and they simple believe to everything the see on TV. Yes, they work for Putin's propaganda only. If oil prices will go up again ruble will strengthen too, he will say: see, I just won Obama again and we are on the rise. Believe me, it will be just like that - Putin will be winner and Obama will be a suck sucker in the eye of an average Russian citizen who watch Federal "news" on TV.
