Americans are more than twice as likely to say they "strongly disapprove" (39%) of President Barack Obama's job performance as they are to say they "strongly approve" (17%). The percentage of Americans who strongly disapprove of Obama has increased over time, while the percentage who strongly approve has dropped by almost half.

It’s semi-consoling to read these numbers, but similar numbers appeared before the 2012 election. We see what we got out of that. Fact is, the USA is now PERMANENTLY in the hands of an evil elite and their ignorant minions.

His path between Milwaukee and Madison shall be a very narrow one next week. Outside that corridor the “Strong Disapproval” majority resides.

And yet, the Republican campaign is still missing in action creating the distinct possibility that this guy can fall back on the Harry Reid Senate for the remainder of his term. Speaking of which, do Kings have terms?

He’s being propped up by guilty whites who feel it would be racist to disapprove - so they go with the moderately approve choice.

They essentially approve of him being black.

It makes them feel good to see a black man walk out of the WH and on to Marine 1. My lib family members have admitted as much.

And so I’m sticking to it.

The GOP could be doing something right — if they are trying to avoid distracting voters from Obama’s mistakes, and are saving their resources for use closer to the election, when it will count for more. Time will tell.

Rassmuseen has the exact same results. Furthering my theory.

The latest figures include 21% who Strongly Approve of the way Obama is performing as president and 42% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -21.

The percentage of people who strongly approve of Obama is almost exactly the same as the percentage of French citizens who strongly approve of ISIS.

I wonder if they are of the same group?

And these numbers are AFTER Holder did his desperate moves in Ferguson in order to get Obama's numbers up among blacks.

Fact is...Obama's base are leaving the "strongly approve" column. They are upset with him on many fronts.

The 17% who “strongly approve” should beninvoluntarily committed...if they already aren’t padded room residents.

*******

Could you and others here please explain how that liar, fraud, and obvious incompetent Obama was elected not once but twice to be President of the United States? I don't get it.

This is a scary thought: I believe that Obama would be voted into office for a third term if he could run again, even after we learned about Obama government scandals and foreign policy mistakes Obama has made over and over this past year alone.

The King looks pretty wiped out in this photo, too.
