Damn, it was just two or three days ago Hussein was at -8, looking poised for a comeback...
27%/45% is still way too high approval rating for a redistributionist statist appeasing dictator
14-April: 32
17-April: 27
-5 points in 3 days - the trend is our friend!
His strong approvers thinned out after tax day?
What a great way to start the weekend.
Obomba’s bounce lasted longer than I thought, but it’s over now.
Telling the lie about taxes going down didn't help either...
MSM. The more they try to help him the lower he goes.
Amusing ain’t it.
The overall (45/54)is the important number.
The strongly approves swings anywhere from 23 to 35 within a week, which makes measurement very questionable in my opinion.
Let’s get it back to -21! Yes, we can!
The 27% probably represents the strong lefties who adore this guy and love his policies. That number is not going to change. Lefties are not going to admit that their ideologies are wrong, because to do so they have to admit that they themselves are "flawed".
The remaining 18% are probably independents and "lite" lefties who are busy trying to make a living and don't really have the time to know what is going on.
Going from an overall approval rating of +30% on Jan. 22, 2009 to -17% today is pretty pathetic, by any measure. There have been only a handful of days Obama was at -21% in March, but otherwise today’s figures are nearly as low as they have ever been. Negatives almost certainly will go higher as Senate debates cap-and-tax shortly.
Brokeback Hussein is still waaaaay to high in the polls.
I won’t feel comfortable until his approvals are below 40%..and stay there.
Get him down to flirting with 40% and under and that's major, major.
Damn it's taking forever to get this guy down where he ought to be.
On that note, I was watching some show on Fox the other day. There was a black woman as guest, a comedian of some kind. Funny lady, bubbly personality, likeable. One Fox & Friends host asked her if she thinks everyone should pay taxes. The topic that morn was the news that some 47% of Americans don't pay taxes.
"Hell yeah," she said. "I pay taxes; everybody should pay taxes."
Then the host said, well Obama wants to keep creating an underclass. Suddenly she got very sober and serious.
"I know you folks don't like Obama," she said. "But I like him."
The host asked her why since she seems to think everyone should pay taxes and most of Obama's cabinet seems to have gotten around that little matter.
She got animated, trying to make light of the matter. "He's half-white, half-black," she offered as a reason...in a light-hearted manner but her comment made no sense.
All but the most obtuse could read directly between her lines. <<>> the between-the-lines sentiment screamed.
I don't think she wanted to come and say he was black because he IS half-white, something black folks seem to forget consistantly. It was like she was reaching for some logic but logic failed her.
It's like OJ. To this day a large percentage of blacks will still swear he was innocent.
They know he wasn't innocent. It's just that...well he's black and famous and he gets a couple of free murders. If Obama murdered someone the black population would still deny it even if videotaped.
They'll never stop loving him.
Not really... I am afraid of what he will do after the November elections. This fool never had to deal with adversity in his life. It won’t be pretty.
