Obama Hits 50 Percent Disapproval in Daily Gallup
Gallup Daily via Newsmax ^ | 8/16/2010

Posted on 08/16/2010 6:21:54 PM PDT by GVnana

The percentage of Americans disapproving of how President Obama does his job hit an all-time high Monday, with half of all voters surveyed by the Gallup poll saying they disapprove.

The 50 percent mark was a jump from previous polls, which had showed Obama leveling off in the high 40s, according to Gallup’s daily tracking poll. The new high certainly doesn’t bode well for Democrats in the midterm elections. Though Obama isn’t running, he is the face of the party.

The news comes as Democrats weigh the fallout from President Obama’s remarks Friday night in support of the mosque being built near the site of the attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001. Forty-two percent told Gallup they approved of the president's job performance.

Only 50% of Americans hate Communism and object to their wealth, properties, rights and probably their lives being taken away?

All Communist governments eventually turn to violence to enforce their control. This includes prison camps (aka, gulags) and murder.

Ask that King Shabazz and his brother how much they would like to legally murder crackers? You bet they would!

Because of the blacks and the uber left in this country I would be shocked if his approval numbers fell below 40%.

The MSM simple will not allow such an event to occur.

O’Bloviator tonight was saying that ‘he’ll be in the 30s in a week’ but I think he fails to take in to account your point.

You know things are really bad for Democrats when the Clintons start cozying-up to the right.

People are becoming more and more educated on who Obama is, what he represents and the cadre that accompanies and controls him. Keep up the education folks. Education is the key, especially regarding Obama! Lots of research material out there now so keep passing it on. . . especially before the Obama Referendum election on November 2, 2010!

A president's job approval ratings are related to his party's success in midterm elections. Presidents with ratings below 50% have seen their party lose 36 seats on average in midterm House elections -- with a range of 11 to 55 seats lost. A continuation of Obama's current pattern of approval ratings well below 50% would not bode well for the Democrats this fall.

Keep the faith, and keep fighting the good fight. We got 'em on the run..

Though Obama isn’t running...

Just once, could they say that about George Bush?

"Only 50% of Americans hate Communism and object to their wealth, properties, rights and probably their lives being taken away?"

50% of REGISTERED voters...with a little special sauce thrown in.

It's probably only 50% of the citizens though....

When it comes to those who will actually VOTE, it's more like 60%.

Yeah, I know, not enough to account for reason, but it's certainly enough to account for a LANDSLIDE.

"You know things are really bad for Democrats when the Clintons start cozying-up to the right."

I joined this forum a long time ago because of the Clintons and, what was then, their "march toward socialism".

Sheesh, talk about the good ol days.

However, the Clintons, while not our allies, will be "helpers" in our elimination of the Obama Progressives...in 2010 and 2012.

The Enemy of My Enemy is My Friend (for now).

Even the pro liberal polls can’t hide the fact that the punk president is tanking. Just wait a week after the 9-11 site mosque comment has sunk into the populus, and watch the results.
