He’s not at +5. He gained 5 from his -17, putting him at -12 for the moment.
Ras uses a 3-day rolling average. Saturday’s posting was the first day that was made up of all days after his SOTU (W, Th, F). That means he got a small bump from the party faithful. He’ll dwindle back down pretty quickly, I think. I can remember last summer when he finally breached 0 and went into negative territory. He hasn’t been out of negative territory since. I check every day with just a handful of days missed over the last 7 months. He’s been as low as -23 and has had numerous days of -21 and -19. Overall, he’s trended a long way down, occasionally eeking out a little bounce upward of a couple points.
I thought Rasmussen had him at -19 earlier.
It was a joke on top of your joke and anyway, his numbers are going lower than a dry well by summer.
Especially if he continue to give people the bird and have lame speeches such as the SOTU where he calls out people directly, in public and on TV for all to see.
I mean who does that and sincerely believes they are going find consensus or negotiation from the opposition?
Then he goes to the Republicans and comes with convoluted statements saying they are not going to get what they want.
What? You are the one moving an agenda, to which we are opposed and for you to continue to lie and say we have proposed no other choices is just amazing.
You... Cannot get your proposal passed because the American people do not want your “gift”.
If your idea was so good you could have passed almost anything when you had a filibuster proof gang and yet you didn't and couldn't. Why?
The republicans didn't have anything to do with your inability to pass your agenda. You and your then 60 Senators could have done whatever what they wanted and you failed your own goals. The Republicans before last Tuesday were essentially persona non grata and irrelevant but you couldn't move your agenda forward.
What happened before Tuesday that prevented you from passing any number of things you wanted?
What has changed that makes you believe you are “now” going to get bi-partisan support on something you clearly didn't need before?
