You are right. He has dropped fast since the View interview. hardihar. He was between 15 - 17 last week, but that was up from the -18 the week before.

[SeattleBruce]

Abyss has been negative 5 of the last 10 days. I do think that’s a record in futility for the ‘one.’ :):)

[xzins]

as mentioned to durmundstrang, I intended to write “decreases the noise” instead of “increases the noise.”

[The Bronze Titan]

Geez, that's a 'girlie man' reaction if there ever was one.....

[txrangerette]

Bob Dole was Clinton’s opponent, though...

Enough said.

[Carley]

He calls us mongrels with reptilian brains........how could we approve.

What a fool.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I wish I could find one of those 44% so I could ask them what the heck they’re thinking. Unfortunately, for me those people seem to be very hard to find. I’m very skeptical about that number.

You left out ‘married once now a widow/widower’.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

The Alexander Fraser Tytler quote is ‘true’ but is a hoax.

I think there may be the possibility of a real backlash among those of your son’s age and younger. They are seeing that the glorious future of socialism is a fraud. I have a stepson who is 35 and he is hopeless, he still has not awakened to what is going on. He is the last sort of person who should trust anyone in government but he is still trying to block out the truth and pretend that Obama is going to deliver us to the promised land.

“who knows what the voters will do in 2012.”
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

The real question is who knows what the vote COUNTERS will do in 2010 or 2012.

[RipSawyer]

“I read somewhere else that people are moving towards being more approving as time passes.”

I saw that too but I don’t believe it, I see no evidence of it, rather I see people who used to support Obamacare either falling silent on the topic or expressing dismay. Some who had sense enough to know it would be a disaster would avoid the topic, now they come out and say what an idiotic idea it is. A lot of people are no longer willing to suffer fools who are still stupid enough to openly support Obama.

[RipSawyer]

The Mafia would probably at least be able to understand that ten percent of a thriving business that will go on for many years is better than one hundred percent of something that will be forced to close down tomorrow.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

LOL and that was suppose to save him. Where is the article that says the WH plan is to draw Obama back out of the limelight because waaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaa he is taking the blame for everything and people think he can wave his arm and cause magic.... as he campaigned...”as the tides roll upon the shores I’ll be there” blah blah blah

[pieceofthepuzzle]

“Geez, that's a ‘girlie man’ reaction if there ever was one.....”

Agreed. Ironically, I have a liberal friend (woman) who thinks he is “an amazing athlete”.

[Atlantan]

Monday Obama is coming the Atlanta and the Dem Gov candidate, Roy Barnes, will be in south Georgia, about as far from Atlanta as possible.

[americanophile]

Imagine what these numbers would look like if he had to endure the 24/7 onslaught of negative attacks of every conceivable kind that were hurled at George W. Bush? This is a remarkably bad showing for a president who is the beneficiary of the most tame, uninquisitive and cooperative press in American history.

[DCPatriot]

Is that a broom up your a$$....or did you crap your pants?
Your SS detail seems to think so, by the expression on his face!
