Rasmussen : Obama drops to lowest approval rating (45 %)
Hot Air ^ | November 24, 2009 | ED MORRISSEY

Give Rasmussen a lot of credit thus far in the Obama Era. They predicted his decline first, have documented his rallies, and now report on the nadir of his standing among registered voters. In their daily tracking poll, Barack Obama dropped to a 45% approval rating, tying the lowest mark of his term thus far, and hit a new record on their “passion index”:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 27% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -15. This is the lowest Approval Index rating yet measured for President Obama[.]

How did Obama do at the golf course this weekend? Is that new Ping Putter working for him yet?

It still needs to go lower to kill healthcare.

We need him in the 30s. This will mean that all is left is the most die hard supporters and basically all the independents/moderates have jumped ship.

He won’t be able to promise them cushy jobs if they lose election because they’ll know it will only be a very short term cushy job.

If Obama’s overall approval number goes below 40 percent, political pros will tell you that the person rarely recovers above 50.

Total Approval has oscillated between 45 and 50% for the last four months.

I like the picture Rasmussen includes—it’s his best “What me worry” pose. ;)

Even Soros’ manipulations of the stock market are not working for Obama.

I’d bet a fortune the headline proves inaccurate...it’s not his lowest approval rating, it’s just his lowest so far. It is sure to go lower the more he blunders and puts America at risk and more and more Americans start to notice. So far he’s been given a pass by most of America, but eventually his mantra that it’s all Bush’s fault grows old and what truth there is in it grows less and less true.

When there is another Islamo-terror attack on US soil in which American civilians are killed, Obo’s approval number will drop beneath 40%.

What I want to know is, other than blacks, who the hell are the imbeciles comprising the 45 percent who still approve of Zero?

It appears their grand strategy required the taking out Fox News and talk radio before the slide in the polls started. It may now be too late.
