Rasmussen ^ | 9-15-09

Posted on 09/15/2009 10:41:26 AM PDT by Justaham

Following President Obama’s speech to Congress last week, support for his health care reform plan increased steadily to a peak of 51% yesterday. However, the bounce appears to be over. The latest daily tracking shows that support has fallen all the way back to pre-speech levels.

right now hes giving his second speech of the day to UNION members who don’t give a flying hoot about his LIES.
He has to get in front of his people for the adulation. He knows theres a whole lot of rejection out there.

He is a narcissist and, as such, cannot tolerate anything less than fawning adulation. Thus, he prefers to speak before Union crowds.

The latest daily tracking shows that support has fallen all the way back to pre-speech levels.

It just got a whole lot easier for Republican to defend Joe Wilson in the well of the House. One doubts if they will find the fortitude to do so-but they should.

Ultimately this is a battle which must be fought and it might as well be fought over Joe Wilson as some other proxy incident which is bound to occur again and again so long as the Republicans stand mute whenever the rats play the race card.

Unless and until the Republicans find a way to make playing the race card as politically incorrect as practicing racism, they will be kept on the run by Democrats. So timorous are Republicans over this issue that they simply cannot present a solid wall of resolution in the face of such cynicism. The charge of racism against Joe Wilson is so preposterous and devoid of proof that it presents an opportunity to seize the high ground.

It should be the goal of conservatives in America to make the Congressional Black Caucus as infamous as the Ku Klux Klan. Affirmative action should be as morally repugnant to the bulk of America as outright segregation. If Republicans cannot find a way to ascend and hold the moral high ground, eventually they will be beaten into minority party status forever as unscrupulous Hispanic leaders decide that the way to fame and profit is to make the devil's own deal with the Democrats and follow the path of African-Americans.

Fight the fight now over Joe Wilson and maybe you will not have to fight the fight again over the next Sonia Sotomayor.

Agree - I’m sick of a 48-year-old who’s never done an honest day’s work in his life (and is continuing the trend) tell me how I’m to live my life and that he knows what’s best for me.

He’s an unqualified moron who knows nothing about nothing and needs 33 czars to tell him what to think.

Photobucket From “Rules for Radicals” by Obama’s hero, Saul Alinsky:

RULE 5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon." There is no defense. It's irrational. It's infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.”

QUESTIONS?

I don’t know if it’s possible to find out but I suspect that a good part of the Rasmussen bounce was actually attributable to conservatives and more affluent people being out of the house due to involvement in football-related activities and tea parties over the weekend. Now that the weekend is over, Zippy’s numbers are starting to normalize.

Not to mention the non-stop finger pointing while he speaks. He has a nasty tone.

Face it ... the realization that Obama is nothing but a fraud has sunk in ... now it’s time to remove his power; 2010 will help.
