The percentage of American men saying they approve of the way Barack Obama is handling his job as president hit an all-time low of 36 percent in the Gallup poll last week.
That is down from a peak of 64 percent approval among men that Obama received in the seven-day period that ended on Jan. 25, 2009, the week he was inaugurated.
After his first week in office, Obama’s approval among men as measured by the Gallup poll never again matched that 64-percent peak.
Obama’s approval among men first dropped below 50 percent in the last week of August 2009. That week—after Obama had been in office only seven months-- it hit 47 percent. Less than three months later, in the second week of November 2009, Obama’s approval among men went above 50 percent for the last time—hitting 51 percent.
Obama’s approval among men dropped below 40 percent for the first time in the third week of August 2010, when it hit 39 percent. CNS Last week, Obama’s approval among women was 43 percent in the Gallup poll, seven points higher than his approval among men—but still only 2 points above Obama’s all-time low among women, which was 41 percent, the level it hit in the week that ended Aug. 28...

Does this mean men are smarter than women (just a question)??
Comparing men and 0bama is like apples and oranges, LOL!
How’s his approval among girly-men?
“How’s his approval among girly-men?”
WIth DADT repealed, I would say about 95%. The other 5% are in the military.
Was Maoabma’s approval rating ever high among men(at least among ones that do not practice homosexual behavior)?
How’s his approval among manly women?
No kidding! :)
“How’s his approval among manly women?”
Moochelle seems to approve of him...
Women love bad boys and they love damaged, needy men. Obama qualifies in both categories. Go figure. I will never understand women (and I am one.)
A male who supports Obama is NOT a man.
In this poll, “Men” = Males over 18, which includes sissies and Nancy-boys.
Pare it down to real “Men” and it would drop even further.
Further scale it down to “Men Registered to Vote”, it would be in the 20’s.
“Real Men Likely to Vote”...maybe 1%.
“A male who supports Obama is NOT a man.”
African American males who comprise a large piece of those 36% would probably disagree. If you take them out of the mix his favorability among males would probably dip into the twenties.

When it comes to politics most men are better informed than most women. It is easier to bamboozle a large segment of the female population than it is to bamboozle a large segment of the male population. Who watches Joy Behar on The Spew? Who watches Oprah? Of course, this is not true of every man or woman.
I find it hard to categorize a limp-wristed, granny-pants wearing, can’t-throw-a-baseball-to-save-his-life, spicy-mustard-eating, lite-beer-drinking former community organizer qualifies as a “bad boy.” I mean, he is a bad example of a boy, but not a bad boy. Is he damaged and needy?? Only in a political sense.
I want to know who these 36 percenters ARE. Seriously. Black men? Really? With their unemployment rate sky high?
White men? Really? With his obvious move to stop any prosperity they’ve been pursuing?
Young men? Really? With his failure to get the job market going?
