I stand corrected: I had not refreshed my page on RCP, obama now stands at -4.6% overall, a massive new low, more than a percentage point greater than yesterday, mostly because of Ras’s new figures being so devastating today.
The democrats should be in full meltdown mode by monday. People will run, not walk, away from this toxic president.
You’re lucky. I know a few people who will not admit they were wrong and who, in fact, get testy about it.
hehe, no problem. been there, done that.
I like your prediction but ... it may not be realistic.
He’ll never lose more than 10% of the black voters and he won’t lose the elitist, commie leaning liberals.
So with that base, can he go much lower? I guess we’ll see.
GREAT POINT
We have a small expensive college here in town and the kids have gone away so we’ve seen no bozo stickers but I bet when some of these rich elitists type snotty nosed kids come back they will bring their bozo stickers and their voting ways with them .
More like it, with some pork rinds on the side.
He was here about a week ago. Big deal. He and Harry got about a 2 second clip on the local news.
Nevadans don’t like either of them.

How right you are and how sweet it is!

The Real Clear Politics webpage can be considered the poll of all polls because it averages together all of the most recent presidential job approval polling surveys, including those conducted by the Obama-loving sycophantic “news-media” outlets!
One number on the RCP poll that’s especially encouraging is Obama now teeters just under the 50% disapproval number at 49.8%. That’s horrible news for the Kenyan Marxist!
Obama’s media cheerleaders are beginning to fall apart somewhat, there have been more reports allowed that are not just critical on policy matters but Obama personally. Not nearly enough of course; the media has a lot of practice protecting their own.
What is going on with the Democrats though? Going after Rangle and Waters would not seem to help them or Obama and in fact, logically, would hurt. This should worry our side. No way the Democrats are committing political suicide this close to an election.
So, what do they have up their sleeves?
-30 would be lovely for me.....
“November will be the beginning of the end for obummer. “
Hopefully from your keyboard and monitor directly to God’s ears and eyes.
You’re right.
I don’t care for either one of them. I’m not impressed. I always thought that Tiger was a little too good to be true.
Apparently I was right.
adorno says:
“A question somewhat related to the topic of Obama approval/disapproval:
Does anyone know what the latest approval/disapproval ratings are for Obamacare? I read somewhere else that people are moving towards being more approving as time passes.”

Not so... The latest Rasmussen Report survey released this past Monday shows that 58% of voters favor repealing Obamacare (as opposed to just 37% who favor it).

Pure and simple, America is not falling in love with the idea of government-run health care like the Hussein regime thought we would.
I missed it, when/where did she do that?
And because most of those polls (every one other than Ras) in the RCP average have some kind of "neutral" choice (Approve, Disapprove, Not Sure) that makes this figure even more significant because it's already more than half of the people who actually expressed an opinion.
If you look down through the RCP polls at the ones whose Approve + Disapprove do not add up to 100, you find that somewhere between 4% and 8% are choosing the "Not Sure" type of response. Let's call it 5% on average to be charitable. Surely you would have to consider someone who is "not sure" if they approve or disapprove of Obama to be at best unenthusiastic, at worst teetering on the edge of "Disapprove."
And in fact we have some evidence that this is true. Rasmussen, who requires respondents to choose and does not leave them a "not sure" option, is basically showing that all of those neutral people, when forced to choose, are going with "Disapprove". We know this because Rasmussen's "Approve" figures are in-line with the other polls, but his "Disapprove" figures are noticeably higher, by just about exactly that 4 to 8% the other polls are putting in the "Not sure" or other neutral type category.
It was his turn to play candidate.
Yeah. But then he went on The View to buck up his ratings.
*Snicker*
Another big dose of media spin...... The lines to see Dr. (cant pronounce the foreign name) have yet to form.... The denials of service due to age have not begun....
We are for a fact, in perilous times. But there is hope and things are moving, albeit a bit slowly, in the right direction.
When considering the 44% “somewhat approve” number, you’ve got to remember the demographics we working against: a population that is around 13% black from which Zero draws over 90% blind support and entrenched left wing-nuts who are about 20% of the population where he gets pretty much 100% support. That gives him a solid immovable base of support of about 32% without even trying (his confirmed lost souls).
The only group where than can be conceivable movement away from him are the remaining 14% who are neither black or left wing loons. When he gets down into the thirties, he will have lost everything but his base.
A lot of people thought he’d get a boost out of his View appearance, I didn’t really think so. Preaching to his choir isn’t going to help him at this point!
