Obama's Latest Speech About The Economic "Recovery" Results In Mass Audience Exodus (Video)
Zero Hedge ^ | 10/20/2014 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 10/20/2014 1:22:14 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Yesterday, Obama made a rare campaign trail appearance in Maryland where he spoke in support of Democratic candidate for governor, Anthony Brown, proceeded with his usual bulletin of reading fabricated economic data off the teleprompter in which he highlighted improvements in US unemployment (if not the 46.5 million people on foodstamps or the 93 million Americans out of the labor force), a rebounding housing market (just as the bouncing dead cat is once again dead), the benefits of health insurance (if no mention of the disaster for small businesses that Obamacare now definitively is) a resurgent manufacturing sector (just don't look at this chart) even if he did point out the unfairness of families having "two folks working", and... a mass audience exodus followed.

This is how Reuters summarized it:

President Barack Obama made a rare appearance on the campaign trail on Sunday with a rally to support the Democratic candidate for governor in Maryland, but early departures of crowd members while he spoke underscored his continuing unpopularity.

 

With approval levels hovering around record lows, Obama has spent most of his campaign-related efforts this year raising money for struggling Democrats, who risk losing control of the U.S. Senate in the Nov. 4 midterm election.

It has gotten so bad, "most candidates from his party have been wary of appearing with him during their election races because of his sagging popularity," according to Reuters.

Here's why: "A steady stream of people walked out of the auditorium while he spoke, however, and a heckler interrupted his remarks."

And then this from the Free Beacon:

Many attendees of an Obama campaign rally headed for the exits shortly after the president began speaking Sunday evening.

 

Speaking at campaign rally in Maryland for Democratic candidate for governor Anthony Brown, Obama either ignored or didn’t notice the movement of attendees out of the event.

 

Reports were unclear if attendees left due to unhappiness with President Obama. Disapproval of the president is currently at an all-time high.

And then the eyewitness reports:

Lots of people, at least up front near where journalists are sitting, appear to be leaving this rally now that Obama has started speaking.

Steady stream of people leaving Maryland rally continues as Obama speaks. It's noticeable and noisy. They would have waited hours to get in.

— Jeff Mason (@jeffmason1) October 19, 2014

One thing is clear: people have had enough of both hope and change.

Amazing how there isn’t any video of this, eh?

If people were walking out of a speech by Bush, every network would have made it their top story.

The white campaign workers were too busy trying to convince people to stay, as was pointed out in a event photo yesterday.

Looking at the audience I’m surprised they left, because they’re all probably already on the dole. The Teleprompter Messiah must not have offered up any new free goodies.

Hope and Change indeed. Maybe it’s just me and about 53% of the population but I want n t to hear concrete policy proposals. Hope and Change is just, I don’t know, like a fart in a windstorm. Nothing. Well, that’s what a first term corrupt senator from Illinois turned out to be . . . a fart in a windstorm - 8 freaking years long. People that voted for this purple lipped, clown prince of bullshit should hang themselves in their garages

I'll take a stab and say the USSS probably frowned upon anybody with such devices near Obola.

At least in public.

My only question is didn’t these morons already KNOW he was going to be the guest speaker? If so then why did they bother to go in the first place. And if you figure that he has never been on time for any event in his life why did they bother to even wait around for him?

Obama has lost a LOT of support on the left. These are people who are mad at him for the new offensive in Iraq, mad that he deals with corporations and capitalists, mad that he didn't legalize the immigrants a few weeks ago...in other words the Code Pinko types.

This is one reason why his approval is down so low. Many on the far left are now deserting him.
