(Limbo rock - Chubby Checker)
Wow...
this isn’t following previous patterns of going down down, then bouncing back for a bit, etc.
We thought for a while that -14 was going to be the “steady state” due to the patterns.
The problem is, because OMarxist has no intentions of standing for any more elections, the popularity (or lack thereof) does not concern him.
The Baier interview was a disaster, so not surprised at this number.
His "abyss" (total support minus strong disapproval) rating is drifting between 0 and +5. I'd guess we'll be in negative territory by April.
He's got to pass ObamaCare this weekend. Otherwise the conservatives will hate him for being a socialist, and the socialists will hate him for being an ineffective socialist. Look for him to explore all options option to a crooked Chicago politician.
I guess I’d have to vote “strongly disapprove,” since “hate the lying bastard” is not an option.
Great, now all we need is a legislature that will impeach this guy. November can’t come soon enough for me.
And the Real Clear Politics polling average now has him negative for the first time!
the arrogant, pouting, incompetent snark-fest with Bret Baier certainly did not help
He’s going to keep sinking. Praise the LORD!
The real number is 45A/55D
Hes been as low as 43A a week or so ago. If he manages to fall below that this week, it will make the Democrats “aye” votes on HCR all that much harder.
they need a new poll called “I disapprove of the President’s performance, but I strongly approve of his skin color”
Two thoughts:
1.) By my reading of these numbers over the past year, the numbers “harden” at key junctures like this. By that I mean that people feel the need to express their views more fervently. For responders on the margin, “Approve” becomes “Strongly Approve” and “Disapprove” becomes “Strongly Disapprove.” What is significant to me in today’s numbers is NOT that they generate a -21. It is that strongly approve is almost exactly half of overall approve. That’s as low as it’s ever been. Even Obama’s dwindling base support is tepid. His people should be scared out of their minds at the huge, huge, huge gamble that the Dems are taking here.
2.) Intrade gives this bill a 70% chance of passing. But this is not like the stock market that it purports to be, because there is a feedback loop that is being almost entirely neglected. And this means that the chances of passage are actually well below what Intrade suggests. The reason I say this is that the only chance that Pelosi has of keeping her very fragile voting bloc together is to create the sense that it is a lock to pass. Otherwise her people will dessert at the last moment like rats off of a sinking ship. 70% is about as low, I think, as this probability can be and still give Pelosi and her ilk reason for optimism. And unless the number rises from here on forward, I predict that it will instead drop like a rock at the end. She needs to create a veneer of invincibility and inevitability. 70% doesn’t quite get her there.
Bottom line: Despite the rise on Intrade, I am sensing that ObamaCare is starting to smell, like ground beef that’s been left on the kitchen sink for a few days. I spend too much time trolling the Internet, but the upside is that I feel like I have a better sense of the gestalt of things and the emerging trends than anyone else I know. I sense that this thing is going to reach its zenith in the next 12 hours and then come crashing down before dawn on Saturday. It will be over at least a day or two before the scheduled vote.
Told ya’ll so.
...just sayin....
Strong disapprove is up to 44%. Astounding.
Americans appear to not be amused but a person who has deceived them so profoundly.
AND, if my take on Obama is correct, this Narcissist is only getting started with his you RULE by DECREE so by this time next year this poll will be worse than even we would suggest.
The only good news so far this Friday.
