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...
GAMBIT!
This is going to get interesting . . .
Now.
Just call him "Obamiah."

Zogby confirms the Rasmussen daily tracking poll:
4470 likely voters (interactive);
F UF
OBAMA 48 49
REPUB 6
INDIES 40
So did Carter and Bush 1. Also, Clinton never won a majority of the vote in either term.
J. Elders just checked in...she still likes Obama and Eric Clapner.
Reagan, Nixon, and Clinton all fell below 50% in their first term but all won reelection
And they didn't have to steal it either.
Don't discount the fascist in chief getting reelected.
I remember her, she plays a mean zither doesn't she? LOL!
What puzzles me is that 20% of Republicans approve of Obozo.
Actually, it puzzles me that ANYBODY approves!
I agree, just that it does not appear likely to turn out that way given the other side’s insatiable hunger for power.
When one group goes after antoher group in a power grab, it usually does not end up in any ohter manner, throughout history other than violence or total domination usually followed by a cleansing of the dominated party. The jews in Germany are a prime example. The Kulaks in the Ukraine. The Indians in American frontier, until the libs started giving things back to them. In Zimbabwe the black govt. took over and has systematically been taking away all white farms including killing the white farmers and starving and killing all opposition. The protestants and catholics in Ireland have been killing each other for centuries. I could go on and on and even include the muslims over the last thousand years and their almost total elimination of other religions within their islamic states. The libs have shown no tolerance for capitalism or constitutionalists.
I really hope that your way wins out. But you better be prepared if this goes the way of all history. PS, I was not advocating violence, just predicting that we have turned a corner, and peaceful means are not likely to save me or my descendants. The choice for violence or surrender is not here at this time.
The black panthers were and are racist pigs, similar to rev wright and the Kenyan. If what I think may happen occurs there will be a lot of blacks, hispanics, Indians, etc. as our brothers in the struggle. Hope it never happens.

Wonder if they're worried though...he keeps making misstep, after mistake, after miscalculation after bungle (as we knew he would...)
It took conservatives a while to jump ship from RINOs when it became clear they weren't doing a good job...and our posture toward the press was one of a fair amount of unanimity, for a while...but eventually we bailed on the RINOs...
I wonder how many dims are really pretty nervous...I wonder what kind of conversations the Hillary supporters are having about bammy?
I wonder what kind of conversations the blue dog supporters are having about bammy...
Yet, he whistles past the political graveyard?
And publicly, they're still united...but can we hear and see the cracks increasing?
There...Fixed it...
How dare anyone infer ALL women are stupid? How denigrating to such wonderful conservative women such as Laura Ingraham, Ann Coulter, Monica Crowley, Condalisa Rice, Sarah Palin, Tammi Bruce (just to name a few), and millions of others...
What puzzles me is that 20% of Republicans approve of Obozo.

Right, this is the RINOs core base...the ‘can we all just get along’ group - the ‘Rodney King’ Rs - lol - this is the group that needs to be minimized these days (4 to 1 - necessity is the mother of invention?), like when conservatives were being disregarded, to various degrees, in recent elections. That is the group out from which, we must extract the R party leadership...
Some of the recent bantor from the top, not holding back on using the socialism rhetoric, is promising.
“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 didn’t think we had a shot at this about 2 months ago...but we might be able to stop this in the House...according to one local Tea Party leader out here, some liberal blogger claimed that the letters to the Congressional offices in WA State are running 15 to 1 agin the socialized med plan...
That’s encouraging, bammy’s falling approval is encouraging, the spot swat protests and counter protests are encouraging...
Keep up the FULL COURT PRESS folks...
We have not yet begun to fight...we will not go away...we will not quit...we will have more stamina than the mealy mouthed illogic of the Soros funded, marxist motivated, bammy repeated (our dear totus) bs.
So did Jimmah, and he lost.
He can bottom out at about 37% or so - which I predict is where he will be on Election Day, 2010.
When he hits 20% I’ll cheer, until then I worry.
Naa, I think Obamacare will fail. EPIC FAIL.
Actually, I think the GOP takes the House in 2010...and we get to 47-49 in the Senate.
2012 is what I’m more worried about.
