He should be polling around -40.
His basement for strongly approve is 20-22%... they likely won’t go lower than that no matter what the guy does... he hasn’t hit completely rock bottom yet, but that’s likely due to about 5% who just wont admit they supported a dud, more than they strongly support him.
“I stopped paying attention to Rasmussen Presidential polls when they failed to reflect Obama’s collapse in the last few months—I mean, the guy’s a pariah!
He should be polling around -40.”
That’s because many who voted for him lie and say they support him when they are already sick of him. The same thing happened to Bush in 2005 and 2006. Those supporters then didn’t turn out in the 2006 election. When the Dems won Congress in 2006, Bush’s support collapsed. The same will likely happen to Obama after this election (his marginal supporters will defect and his poll ratings will collapse), unless he pulls a Clinton and moves to the center, which seems unlikely.
They ALL use different methods and they ALL ask more Democrats, the science of polling is dead now. The polls really only influence people now.
George Gallup was a wonderful Christian man and a pioneer in polling, but he is long gone now.
And now they average the polls,that is the biggest joke of all. Newsweak, NYTIMES etc release openly bogus polls and this is included in the average.
Polling is no longer a science
