Obama hasn't lost his base. They are trying to "nudge" him. When it comes down to it, they will do what they need to do. Sadly.

Correct that Obama has not lost his base. The day we know he has lost his base is when the left start to protest him about his wars as they did Bush. The antiwar left has not only been muted, it’s been castrated and spayed. They have been bought off and, once again, shown to be the hypocrites that we all them to be.

No matter how mad he makes them, his base will vote for him.

Is Obama Losing His Base?

That depends upon if his base are losing their minds still or if they have joined the ranks of the normal finally.

Obama’s base is on welfare.

No, did Mugabe lose his?? those 12%ers will never leave a Bro.

Obama has not lost his base....his true believers live in an alternative reality and think he is the greatest thing since Christ

I know a few of them and they are totally out of touch with reality.

I can understand an Obama supporter still planning to vote for him while knowing he has done a terrible job as POTUS, these people of whom I speak still think he is the political messiah

Baraq only polled 53% with his inspired base against a weak McLame and dispirited Republican party. This was the “ghost” Baraq who was advertised as the answer to all problems.

I see him as a sure loser in any 2-way race in Nov 012.
There is a risk of him winning with a Clintonian plurality if the opposition splits.

I remember January 2009, and I remember the joy that the Obama base had. I’m not talking about the liberal pundits or labor bosses or professional politicians, but just the poor people who thought their ship had come in.

After 2 1/2 years, they have to be crestfallen as nothing has changed for the better for them.

Obama will never lose his base of political activists, union bosses or Democrat Party professionals.

But he’ll have to come up with something other than “hope” and “change” to motivate the rank and file poverty stricken individuals to come to the polls that he let down when reality didn’t mesh with his lofty rhetoric in the 08 campaign.

All his base are belong to us.

Why do so many people, including those on the right, pay attention to anything Bill Maher says...?

[Venturer]

They call him a politician, I have some more colorful names for the PODS.

Listening to various talk shows, I hear, "I will still cast my ballot for Obama" from the middle to left liberals. I've also heard the Far Left wanting to look a Paul.

Liberals will make excuses to the bitter end. Leftists are just nuts period.

Lose his base? Where are they going to go?
