Seems like the Strongly Approve number is leveling off in the mid-20s, but the SD is wavering up and down a lot.
Unless there is some big news event, positive or negative for Obama, it seems like the numbers may stay in this range for a few months.
Just wanted to make sure that everyone heard the new idea when talking to libs:
Do a “tennis head” impression on them while speaking, until they ask what you’re doing. Then tell them that you have come to understand that this is what libs interpret as an intelligent/brilliant speech pattern.
It is an aggregate of about seven or so different national polls to give an average. He was at about 48% approval and 4.75% disapproval last time I looked. The two lines on that chart were about to dramatically intersect and the "support" to bo further south with the "oppose" to go north. It is an amazing chart to look at, every time.
in my previous, the glorious by-product of word processing way too fast. typos galore. ;-(
I’m thinking a slump tomorrow, too. Imanutjob giving Opossum the nookyaler finger won’t play well.
I too believe both approve and disapprove have stabilized within respective ranges. But I have absolute confidence that BO is gonna PO some significant supporter group within the next week. I’m hoping it’s the Unions but I’m betting that it’s the anti-war crowd. Time for some articles about Afgan operations and our brave ones over there fighting for freedom from terror here. Course, Akbenenadodo could come out in support of BO’s policies - that would be rich.
Funny! Lady liberty putting the torch to his @$$.
We may be in another "leveling out" phase. From Obama's perspective, the State of Union speech may have "stopped the bleeding" at least for awhile. Time will tell.
Is “Ears” Obama the same guy as our “Dear Reader?”
I’m with goat.

The democrats don't have a primary to fight among each other like they are now, in a year you will likely see them all getting along and uniting behind Obama, and given the shortness of people's attention spans, it might work.
Here's something to consider. If Palin doesn't win the primary to be the republican nominee, will she run as a 3rd party? I guess it depends on how much she wants to be President and if she thinks she has enough support.
If she does, will she spoil the election in Obama's favor?
I think pollster.com gives a more useful picture of the "total polls" results:

I wish people would stop with the 3rd party fantasy. The legalities of the election system are set up so that this takes a very, very long time to accomplish. You can't lose in the primaries as a Democrat or Republican and then switch to a 3rd party...there isn't enough time. You have to set out from the beginning to run 3rd party, preferably 5 years in advance.
There are lots of 3rd parties already in existence. Some of them have goals and values conservatives embrace, but those parties are going nowhere.
Over the years, both parties have worked hard to make sure incumbents AND THEIR PARTIES have tremedous advantage over challengers. It's the law. And the only way to change the law is to get current legislators of both parties to weaken their own system. Check-mate.
She could break with the GOP before the primary, I’m sure any of the 3rd parties already made would have her be their nominee?
BAD plan.
Absolutely, worst plan ever....maybe I watch too many movies and listen to too many conspiracy theories, but this seems to be something that the Obama folks are trying to do even now, use Sarah Palin to drive a wedge between the Tea Party and the Republicans and fracture the Conservative movement.
Then again I think I am making the mistake of assigning too much competence to the Obama folks.
