“Most Rat professors that I know...no work in the private sector...”


This is also an underlying problem with a very large percentage of public/government workers whose exposure to the private sector is minimal or non-existent. And we’re witnessing this limited perspective right now in Wisconsin as public union employees have virtually no appreciation of the concept of a limited budget.

When the polls come out on Wisconsin watch how fast the story disappears on the MSM.

Well said. No concept of a budget, especially a limited budget. Just increase taxes.

Rassmussen’s poll jumps up and down all the time.I’ve lost confidence in it’s accuracy.

I can't make an educated statement on Rassmussen's accuracy, but for as long as I have been paying attention, the week to week fickleness of the average dumb a$$ citizen is off the chart. What can one expect from people that change their vote to a candidate because his dog got hit by a car? The massiveness of the "sympathy vote" phenomenon demonstrates my point.

I would like to believe that the dummies are finally seeing this clueless puppet for what he is but we've seen these drops before. Next week he'll offer some freebie or make up some bogeyman and they will be fawning all over him again.

You took the words right off my typewriter...I was thinking the same thing. Pie for someone else next week and he'll be up by 5.

That this man, at this point, could POSSIBLY have 44% of this country support him to any degree is mind-boggling.

They have not polled me yet. How do they pick their poll pool?

Am I correct in saying that this is lowest level of those who strongly approve?

Not exactly. Click on the link...at the bottom of the first paragraph click on "see trends" and start scrolling. For a total of 9 days in February, March and December of 2010 he registered a whopping 22% in the strongly approve category. Remember what was happening in those months?

With the exception of 4 days in September and 1 day in August 2009, the pos has not been above 33% since 7-7-09. With less than 6 months in office he has failed to curry the strong approval of at least a third of the nation. That is what is referred to as EPIC FAIL!

Attacking the Governor of Wisconsin did this fool no favors.

Actually, Obama is for all practical and pragmatic purposes a failed and lame duck POTUS. He has provided absolutely no leadership to his Democrat Party, wasted his first two years on a health care bill that is unconstitutional or failed at the start, has done nothing to creat meaningful, sustainable new job growth, is ignored and laughed at by the rest of the world, has diminished the image and reality of the USA as a world leading nation and has put our nation into bankruptcy!!! Fact is: Obama is toast, an empty suit, anti-American, etc. and....any liberal or Democrat that hangs with him will go down to defeat in November of 2012. End of stories.

It’s a good chunk of the base. Don’t forget to throw in lawyers, all the enviro-kooks, and most Jews.

Crossed eyed vacuum between ears sucker!

He sucks so bad you can hear the vacuum feed all the way from the White Hut, all across the country.

Just a disposable roll of fudge wiping toilet paper. All he can do is campaign while his little leftist dweebs organize protests in order to bring on violence, division and hatred.

I hope his a$$ gets poll kicked so hard that they will find nothing but a few smoking ,scorched pieces at Thule Air Base/Pituffik Airport , just to verify the idiot has left the building.

All that POS is, is a bag of hatred, loosed on America, trying to recreate Cairo and Nairobi Nov. 2007 here.

America has the pretenders number.This tank in the polls is for good.

I think the weekend poll response causes the adjustment to the trend, but basically Rasmussen has been the standard for nearest accuracy, at least in the big elections, so much that the others have picked up on their method.

Translation: The others actually poll Republicans now! :)

People realize that the “won” is in bed with the unions who feel entitled to our money.

The country sees all these problems and he quits his job to become President of the Union in Wisconsin.

Perfectly said! Hat tip.

I was at a birthday party yesterday for my daughter and was talking to a couple of other moms. They had both voted for Obama and BOTH were regretting voting for the guy. I took the opportunity to introduce them to the concept of Natural Born Citizenship. They were like... “What?” Yes, two parents who are citizens, and born on the soil of the nation. His dad was British, I could not believe the guy got past the primaries. Don’t wonder why unconstitutional legislation has been shoved down our throats, they thought they COULD because they got an unconstitutional president into power.

It was simply LOVELY to see the light bulbs pop up over their heads. I am still savoring it.

Yep, so far everyone other than a brain dead liberal I know of has expressed regret for voting for him.

I see the constant sharp up & down spikes and valleys and finally figured it out - the public likes him more when he’s asleep!
