Not his Prius (he lives in Texas):
McCain was a horrible candidate...but even he was still ahead until...
Bush walked out there and said we were going in the financial abyss and we were “hours” from Martial Law (supposedly).
Then Obama won.
Not exactly a support built with cement. The only reason the race was elevated to some kind of life altering event was because it was the first African American President....it had nothing to do with the reality on positions.
Now that we are past the “first black President”, we can have the first black President that loses...then we can get on to the business of judging people on performance, not skin color.
Much like NFL Head Coaches. Does anyone really think about the race of a coach when he is fired now? He is either competent or not.
The first black President happens to be incompetent (though possibly on purpose..which is a backhanded compliment I suppose) or just such an far left ideologue that he doesn’t care to work legitimately on issues, only use the issues.
It all depends on your end game. “incompetence” can be a strategy.
One wonder what would happen if 2012 was Bobby Jindal vs some Dem establishment white dude.....it would be intriguing to see how the media bent over backwards to make it about issues rather than the historic nature of it....and even how they handle a “birther” issue. Because the Dems would be sure to start that up with Bobby Jindal.
What to do? What to do?
The Nixon era Republicans thought that the Latinos would counterbalance the African-Americans by becoming Republicans. (The Karl Rove Theory) What were they smoking? >>>>>>>>>>>
That is way back 30+ years. We had a lot of right wing Cuban immigrants back then. Mexican numbers were small and did they even vote? Besides that our Hispanic immigrants were legal and mostly educated, English speaking and middle to upper class. So more conservative and right wing. It was reasonable to think Hispanic immigrants would vote Republican....back then. Of course the opposite is true today
Darn. He was down to 41% yesterday, but the overall trend is our friend.
I find it alarmingly sad Hussein has at 91% popularity rating among blacks (last Gallup stats I saw). How can a whole race be so invested in such a loser?
Where are WE conservatives, bringing to the forefront our outstanding black men and women—giving them a giant megaphone so they can reach the average African American with the truth??
I am firmly convinced when people are shown the truth they will accept it—I as a former die hard liberal am living proof.
We conservatives need to put the truth out there, sustain and support AMBASSADORS who can reach the black population with credibility, and begin to cut IN to that 91%.
Hussein doesn’t deserve the support of even 50% ofthe black community, let alone 91%!
Gallup polling is of adults (not "eligible voters", ""registered voters" or "likely voters") now shows "disapprove" > "approve".
Rasmussen polls "likely voters"; much more accurate (1/2 of registered voters won't bother to vote in November) but much more expensive to acquire a sample size of statistical significance if you're paying live people to make the calls. Rasmussen uses computers to do the polling -- it's much cheaper -- huge sample size and validated over the last couple of election cycles.
Scott Rasmussen is a very smart guy (he started ESPN with his father, Bill, in 1979) and I have little doubt he's more accurate than most pollsters.
What - COMMUNISM...not popular with American’s???!!!
WHO could have seen that one coming! /sarcasm
WORST PRESIDENT EVER!!!!
He is so unpopular that a local talk radio host who has been avoiding questions about Obama’s birth certificate and mocking those who question his Constitutional eligibility took on the issue directly this morning and has begun asking the same questions.
I saw on my facebook page yesterday a fervent supporter posting how furious he was over Obamer and his refusal to waive the Jones Act. This is a pot smokin hippie who was dancing in the streets on election night. I honestly am starting to believe Obama will not seek re-election. A lot of the old Dem bigwigs will push hard to put Hillary in his place.
and 0bama takes another one in the...........HA ha!!!
9mm inside... tooo damn funny!!!
Check post 38
Hey Barry can we get another speech please?
He is a loser but their loser.
Rasmussen is right; the others are bullcrap.
I enjoyed that too -- with California plates, possible but not too likely!
I wish I could say the same, but they've definitely been reduced considerably. Gradually I'm seeing more anti-Zero stickers and hearing more open conversation about his failure. The ice is melting - slowwwwllly.
