This daily tracking was at -12 last week. Now it’s -8?

How did he gain 4 points on this basis after the White House ordering its operatives to “hit back twice as hard” against town hall protestors and the assaults that followed?

Can anyone please tell me what the sheep are watching that any political party’s voters can give this guy an 80%+ approval rating?

I feel like the Gunny in Full Metal Jacket; “What is this Mickey Mouse shit? What are you two animals doing in my beloved head? Why is Private Pyle out of his bunk after lights out? Why is Private Pyle holding that weapon? Why are you not stomping Private Pyle’s guts out? “

Probably due to the much-ballyhooed "decrease" in the unemployment rate from 9.5% to 9.4%.

You skipped a few days. Yesterday he was at -5 and today back down to -8. He gained some due to the stock market rally, but I believe the thugs at the town halls drove him back down and he may keep plummeting, you have to remember Rasmussen does this over a 3 day average.

Overall rating did not change. It is still at 50 like/50 dislike.

What spiked was the STRONGLY APPROVE number.

So his statements about fighting moved some of those from the mildly APPROVE into the STRONGLY APPROVE block.

That’s how he jumped.
