No they haven't. He down where he was a week ago. -8 overall approval. The movement this week is all within the margin of error. Just statistical noise.
As for the rest of your posts. You really want to try auguring that by fighting back we are losing?
You could not be more wrong. Read the polling data. Approval vrs disapproval on the protestors is 41% pro, 35% opposed.
You also seem to have missed what happened at the AARP meeting this week. The organizers had to walk out. They were getting an earful from the seniors about their support for Obamamcare.
LOL Howard Dean tried to run the number of uninsured up to 60 million, but sort of backed off to just 50 million.
Sigh. No, I didn't say that. I'll try to be more clear.
WE NEED MESSAGE DISCIPLINE.
We should have ONE OBJECTIVE right now: bring more people to our side on health care.
Who is most likely to be persuaded?
---People who have insurance---and fear losing it.
---Seniors.
---And the millions who worry about the massive deficits (and growth of gov't).
Those should be our target audience. I would give everything I have if I could get our side, including politicians, to stick to the point and repeat ad nauseum our basic concerns. (Why the rush? Leave the insured people alone. Why does it cost so much? Don't cut Medicare. ) That's the message our target audience will respond to. All the talk of media bias and socialism means little to them. So we need to stop blurring our message.
When we defeat health care our other objectives will follow: humiliate the media, diminish Obama's power, etc.
But we have to defeat health care FIRST. With the spotlight on us we can do that...but we have to have a pithy cohesive message and stay on topic!
I'm not trying to tell people what to say or how to say it. I'm simply stating a reality in a media driven environment.
