PRESIDENT OBAMA'S POLL NUMBERS CONTINUE TO TUMBLE (independents disapprove by a whopping 66%)
NY POST ^ | 9/1/98 | CLEMENTE LISI

Posted on 09/01/2009 6:04:05 PM PDT by Liz

Only 46% approve of the job Obama is doing-- a 19-point slide since Jan, according to today's Rasmussen poll.....his lowest level of approval yet. 53% disapprove of the job he's doing.......the push for an overhaul of health-care that includes a govt-run insurance program, has made voters increasingly disenchanted with Obama. The loss of confidence is more profound among highly valued independent voters......a whopping 66% disapprove of the job Obama is doing.............

RUSH: Obama's health care plan will be,

one, written by a committee head who doesn't understand it --

two, passed by Congress that has not read it;

three, signed by a president who smokes;

four, funded by a Treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes;

five, overseen by a Surgeon General who is obese; and,

six, financed by a country that's nearly broke.

What could possibly go wrong with this?

Much lower than Obama's—so far. But Obama has 3.3 more years to go yet. He should have no problem registering numbers worse than Bush's. He's got lots of time left.

Among those who are not part of either party, a whopping 66 percent disapprove of the job Obama is doing, according to the poll...

Sweet music to my ears ping... ;-)

I believe the numbers they are currently using are inflated, the reality is really much worse. I wonder what things will look like by the end of Septermber, physical year end and other countries are really watching.

His numbers are deflating as fast as the money they have already committed out of our coffers.

Watch the money, that’s were the fight is and it’s happening, we’ve been asleep a little to long. The alarm clock is going off and it’s time to wake up.

I think we should rename it: Obama’s POSTAL Care. Do you want the Post Office handling your heart attack?

There is a huge difference between the former President’s numbers and Obama’s numbers. The former President had Saul Alinsky tactics used against him for years (we just didn’t know it then) and Obama has them used for him.....

Even so, Obama is falling harder and faster. I’m doing the happy dance.

The numbers are inflated. These guys, although reporting the obvious drop in support, cannot come to terms with their idol losing his adoring public so quickly.

When you inflate from the beginning and then get everyone unites against him, you see that the numbers were wrong in the first place. But hey, I didn’t vote Obama or McCain, I think they were two sides of the same coin.

I voted for whom I wanted this time and I’m extremely proud of that vote. Even my elderly parents agree with me, they are ashamed that they voted for the chosen loser.

Glad to hear your parents changed their mind about Obama. I also know people that voted for Obama, but they still like him...

Perhaps this is the crisis and the obama mettle testing Joltin' Joe Biden was warning us about.

I love to see his numbers going away as it means people are shaking off their obamatrance, but I worry about what a narcissist like obama will do.

Adoration gave him hubris, but how will he deal with revulsion? Humility and humbleness are not a part of his personality.

We've all witnessed rock stars and TV stars who lost their fans...it's not pretty, but they don't have the power of the Presidency.

It took President Bush 36 months to hit below 50%.
Obama has managed to hit below 50% in just 7 months.
Bush did a heck of a lot better than 0bama is doing, and Bush started off with less than 50% of the popular vote.
0bama started off with 53% of the poplular vote, and has had nonstop pro-0bama shilling from the liberal media. He should be much higher right now.
