How low can you go, Mon?
Overall, 44% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the president’s performance. Fifty-six percent (56%) disapprove.
Yippee!
Wasn’t he -15 two (or three) days ago?
Among pollsters, how would you or anyone rank Rasmussen in terms of accuracy ?
Obammy is simply a fake, a fraud and a phony. He’s a poseur. He’s the ultimate example of The Peter Principle.
When will our national nightmare be over?
Way to move in the right direction.
His polling is a yo-yo. Someone mentioned that -17 is about right and I agree. One day he is at -15 and the next -20 so average -17 is correct for a long while. I think he is toast but I never thought Clinton would win a second term either so who knows what the voters will do in 2012.
He dropped off a little after his “The View” debacle.
Wait until his latest fiasco of decreeing that Illegals really are Legal citizens get settled into the numbers.
I predict that his overall will be in the 30’s by the end of this year.
The next obvious paradigm will be “America - a country at war with its President”.

And the RCP average hit a new low today, spread of approve-disapprove is now -3.6% (was -3.5). The “trend” on the RCP graph is looking particularly ghastly for obama. Relentlessly down with brief periods of sideways motion.
I guess that appearance on “the view” didn’t help much.
Enjoy it while it lasts, there will no doubt be a suspicious poll soon that raises his score.
This new leg down seems to have coincided with (1) the Sherrod Charade and (2) more bad economic data causing lots of people to worry about a “double dip”. I’m thinking more (2) than (1). Sherrod affair will have temporary ramifications, economy is ever-present.
Apparently, the “View” gambit failed. And it would. Women at home out of work or with family members out of work aren’t impressed with smiley faces and baby kissing from leaders who are supposed to be out working.
Well Well, this is a surprise. I thought a bump was coming after the “View” performance. Hmmm....
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.
-30 would be lovely for me.....
There are some who always vote Democrat no matter what.
There are some who always vote Republican no mater what.
And then there are those who can go either way in various elections depending on this and that at the time. It is those independents and others in the middle that determine who wins.
Maybe some of them can excuse their 2008 vote for Obama by claiming temporary insanity due to the economic emergency and being hypnotized by Obama’s purported smarts and “charms”.
If they vote for him again in 2012, they will prove that their insanity is permanent.
