Failure, though a lead baloon has been made to fly. (mythbusters using lead foil)
Lead is very heavy so going OVER something would be hard which means not gonna happen It means when sometyhing doesnt 'go down' well..the propper phrase is actually went down like a lead balloon, which means it wasnt very well accepted.
Usually refers to a joke which fails miserably. Imagine a heavy balloon - it would just crash to the ground with a thud. Normally. The Mythbusters did get a lead balloon to float (yes, it is possible).
I don't know what you mean by "went over" but the president in office (who eventually resigned) was Richard M. Nixon.

This is probably "The Balloon went up last Friday...." It may have originated in Britain in World War 2. So called "barrage balloons" were flown over large cities to prevent German bomber aircraft from flying in and dropping bombs, so "when the balloon goes up" meant a bombing raid was expected.
Yes, when air is blown into a balloon, its shape will change from deflated to inflated. The volume inside the balloon will increase as more air is added, causing the balloon to expand and become larger.
It means you went 20% over your savings goal.
