For First Time, Obama's Approval Rating Falls Below 50%
Overall, 49% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance, RASMUSSEN will report later this morning.
This marks the first time his overall approval rating has ever fallen below 50% among Likely Voters nationwide. Fifty-one percent (51%) disapprove.
Eighty-three percent (83%) of Democrats continue to approve of the President's performance while 80% of Republicans disapprove. Among those not affiliated with either major party, 37% offer a positive assessment.
The President earns approval from 51% of women and 47% of men.
RASMUSSEN was the most accurate pollster for the final results of the 2008 Presidential election.
Developing...
That’s funny. Fox/Opinion Dynamics had him at 54% a couple of days ago. I guess DK/OD used their 2:1 standard ratio of D to R to skew their “wildly popular” 61% approval rate of Baracky.
“BHO is now well on his way to being both the most incompetent AND the most unpopular president in the entire two-hundred-plus-year span of American history.”
Agreed, but can our nation handle two of those in a row?
Repeal the Nineteenth Amendment.
Oh good grief. He has about 80-90% approval by black voters. You want to take their vote away as well just because they don't agree with you?
That's what the black panthers and other left wing extremist groups want, and remember the "child army for Oboma" clips shown on the news before the election? The kids were dressed in military uniforms and doing drills? If Oboma wasn't given affirmative action, they were preparing for war.
The last thing average Americans should do is start a war. Instead, we have to do everything to LEGALLY avoid taxes - of all kinds - at all costs. Without money, the democrats cannot feed their hungry base. When the democrats have no money to cover all their wasteful socialist programs, what will their base do? How will they survive? It won't be the average Americans creating the violence. The Army will have to take our side against the raging, violent democrats. They're the ones starting a war. They'll become the enemy.
Let them do it. Not us. We control the money flow, and we can use it wisely for peaceful reform.
Not yet. I won't believe it until they officially are buried and the state run media is wailing on TV on their defeat.
Why are women so STUPID?
These poll numbers are important as they can affect congressional votes. This is why Ram The Manual wants to force a House vote before recess, they know its heading south.
I guess the press conference didn’t work..
Rasmussen called my mom for this poll! She gave the Zero a big ole F-minus.
I found this on photobucket. Haven’t seen the rest yet, unfortunately.
I’ve been saying that to people I know who voted for Obama - all “moderate” types who wouldn’t harm a flea and fell for all the “Change” crap. “Would you ever vote for Al Sharpton?” The answer is always “No.” I come back with, “Well Obama is nothing more than Al Sharpton in an expensive suit and shades who talks real purty. He’s a flaming racist. You fell for the style and never looked at the substance.”
We’ve seen the race card now show us your birth certificate.
Community organizers and college professors (Woodrow Wilson), elitist radical idealogues who think they are the brightest bulbs ever when in fact they are simply mentally deranged. One early in the 20th century, one early in the 21st...two complete disasters that (did and will) echo through their century.
The liberals told them being a house wife was slavery and that they didn't need a man. Some women believed them. Now, these women are not only working outside the home, but they're also working inside the home and trying to raise their children alone. They're slaves to two Jobs, and they're enslaved by the tax collector as well. Half their paycheck is confiscated before they even get it.
They're forced to vote democrat if they want to eat and feed their children. A politician is now their lover. Their lives are a living hell riddled with torment, and they got the opposite of what the liberals promised them.
They'll never admit how stupid they were to fall for it, though. They play the victim instead, and the blame the wrong villain. It makes them feel better about themselves - for at least a minute or two.
Yep, you can book that. Guaranteed. Same with Cap and Tax.
hey, you're qualified to be President!
I would love to celebrate with most everybody here, but I can’t while he is still the President of this Nation.
Oh yeah, no males voted for this POS. [rolling eyes]
