(MN) Star Tribune ^

Posted on 09/26/2009 11:13:17 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

President Obama's once-robust support in Minnesota has dwindled sharply as he confronts a sluggish economy and significant unease about a health care overhaul that has split Democrats and Republicans in Congress, according to the latest Star Tribune Minnesota Poll.

His national approval polls are as full of as much B$ as the national unemployment numbers are.

Think about it. If his health care plan really was favored 51- 37, do you think they would be writing an article like this? Why all the emphasis on his decline, etc?

I think its bunk, expecially among the "likely" voters. They are going to roast any of the fools that vote for this.

The telephone poll, conducted last week, found Minnesotans split 51 percent to 37 percent in favor of the so-called public option, the most controversial part of Obama's reform plan.

It's only so-called that by the media and liberal politicians. Its' real name is the government option...and I'm sure it would poll alot worse if it was called by that name, instead of the "public" option

We’ve only endured the first part of the 0 solution. Wait until round two kicks in. Americans aren’t going to take to 0’s post America, no matter what kind of Marxist propaganda his goons spread around. Even the poor are going to realize they are worse off.

Glad to hear it. I come from a long line of LIBERAL Minnesota democrats. Hopefully they will see the light.

Minnesota seems like such a strange place where the public option is supported and Al Franken gets elected. Unemployment there is about 8% and Obama’s overall approval rating isn’t that great for such a liberal state. They still support the public option overwhelmingly. I think these libs are disappointed in the lack of freebies.

If Obama loses Minnesota, he has lost America.

Not because Minnesota represents much in the way of “swing” pressure, but because if any state is organized to take advantage of the ACORN enmenshment in the electoral process, Minnesota has to be right up there behind Illinois.

The tactic in Minnesota is to run a third-party candidate, which, if studied closely, has tacit ACORN support. The secretary of state for Minnesota, who has authority over elections and the counting of votes, has been co-opted by the George Soros International consortium, and has already steered several elections in that state, most recently the Stuart Smalley selection. It is well-financed, and able to bring a LOT of pressure on certain key individuals who hold the power to decide. One does not ordinarily consider Minnesota to be a hotbed of corruption, but in some ways, it is very nearly as bad as New Jersey, with tight control at the top.

Which answers to no voters.

They probably don’t count phone calls to conservatives.

Zer0 does’nt understand the hole he created for the Dims.
He appears to be in his own universe.

His approval sinks he steps up his public exposure and he sinks further. He makes another apperance and his lame pitch his approval drops again.

Is he that arrogant to believe that he can control public
thought or does he just like to listen to himself?

I'm making a note to never trust anything you say or do.

Sorry - it's the Jeb Bush rule - it's impossible for you to actually be conservative, given your heritage.
