AP Poll: GOP Seizes Significant Lead, Obama Disapproval Spikes to 60 Percent
Townhall ^ | October 22, 2014 | Guy Benson

Posted on 10/22/2014 10:31:30 AM PDT by yoe

With the midterm elections less than two weeks away, a (new national poll) from the Associated Press features a parade of horribles for Democrats. This is not where a party wants to be in the home stretch of an election campaign:

(1) President Obama's approval rating among likely voters is (41/60), marking his worst disapproval number in the series. As the president has reminded voters in recent days, (Hell Yes, My Agenda is On the Ballot This Fall) of his policies are on the ballot in November, and vulnerable Democrats have been (stalwart allies) on behalf of his agenda in Washington. On issues, the president's numbers are egregious. (42/58) on the economy, healthcare and ISIS, (34/65) on immigration, and (38/62) on managing the federal government. The only issue on which Obama is above water is same-sex marriage, at (50/49). Obama's personal favorability is 10 points underwater (44/54) among likely voters.

For generations to come, Americans will look back at Barack Obama as a pathetic failure who trashed the country.

I’ll bet Obama’s pucker string is pulled pretty tight today with what appear to be terror attacks right across the border in Canada.

Is it just me, or is campaign advertising significantly low this year? I rarely hear advertisements--the kind that usually fill the airwaves by now. It's like the Republicans don't want to say anything that would give the Dems fodder, and the Democrats don't want to say anything to remind them they share the same party as Obama.

I live in Indiana, by the way. Other states?

Yes, but since he's been such a miserable failure he has set the bar so low that no one will be accused of being the worst. The unqulaified kenyan usurper is in a "class" all his own.

Things are going to get much worse after the election IMO. With Republicans likely gaining control of the senate, he has nothing to lose and will go straight to full-on dictator mode. Consequently, we’re likely to see a serious constitutional crisis develop soon. Going to be a very rocky road for the U.S. ahead.

Yes. HOWEVER, historians will GLORIFY him as the first Black President who gave Healthcare to every one.

Mark Levin agrees with you ... Obama to go ‘full Mussolini’ after election: Mark Levin

His insane supporters still stay in the high 30 to low 40% range.

Nothing this Sunni pro Ebola scumbag does will change his loyal and insane supporters.

And he said on the radio that those Dems up for election this year who are running away from him are behind him and his policies 100% but have to deny it to keep from turning out GOP voters to boot them out of office.
He said that if they have to win by deceit that's just fine with him, after-all that's how he won twice.

Remember how he said that he was against gay marriage and how he said it requires an act of congress to give illegals amnesty??? Win by outright Deceit .

Can’t drive the stake deep enough into the heart of liberalism to kill it!

Why only 60 percent? Did he pass out that many free phones?

I am continuing to do my part. I have been holding steady at 100% disapproval of Obama for going on 6 years, now.

You’re in Indiana? So no US Senate or gubernatorial race? I think that would explain the low number of ads for you.

And this is coming from Advanced Propaganda (AP). It’s probably underestimating by 5 points.

Obola, like his namesake, is toxic.
