Poll: Obama's approval hits new low
Politico ^ | 3-30-11 | JENNY EPSTEIN

Posted on 03/30/2011 6:26:59 AM PDT by Mozilla

President Barack Obama’s approval rating and prospects for reelection have plunged to all-time lows in a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday.

Half of the registered voters surveyed for the poll think that the president does not deserve a second term in office, while 41 percent say he does. In another Quinnipiac poll released just four weeks ago, 45 percent said the president did not deserve reelection, while 47 percent said he did.

The decline in support for a second Obama term comes as his approval rating has dropped 4 percentage points since early March, landing at 42 percent – a record low – in the poll released Wednesday. His disapproval rating has risen from 46 percent to 48 percent.

Right now there are no opposing presidential candidates attacking him on TV day and night like there was in early 2007 with President Bush.

Once we get some declared candidates and the debates start his numbers should go down even more, especially if the economy somewhat stays the same with 9% unemployment and high gas and food prices. The media will be forced to cover it and the voters will start to pay attention. HOPEfully.

To be frank I’m thinking more of the racial aspect. But the combination keeps that figure really high, higher than it would be with either by itself.

42 percent.... well lets see minorities make up 40 percent of the Democrat party and there is an entire segment of the population that is racist and supports Obama only because of the color of his skin and not the content of his character or his actions, so go figure, he sits at about 2 percent approval rating... LOL...

I don’t think this is a rope a dope. There is no way he has awesome approval with all the crap that’s going on. High unemployment, rising cost of living, war in Libya, I think his chickens are coming home to roost.

It is lamentable that so many Americans have fallen for the Marxist propaganda. That said, even if Onada loses by 1% the Usurper loses.

IMHO he will lose by a far wider margin than that. His policies continue to tank the economy. It affects all of us in the pocket book. And it is obvious The Marxist Onada is compromising America’s security. I also think his presidential eligibility will ultimately become a high profile issue.

I see nothing on the horizon that could change his negatives to positives.

It’s way too early for these polls to mean much.

Rasmussen will have him back to 49% in no time...they guy has more teflon in his poll numbers than slick willie jefferson clinton did...

Worse, folks who put him in his political grave today underestimate him and the RAT machine of corruption. This guy has more teflon in winning elections than John Gotti in getting successfully prosecuted. True, Gotti fell eventually, but look how long it took. We don't have that luxury in yielding the Executive Branch.

‘When’s his approval ratings going to be in the 30s already?’

Probably never.

About 10 -12% of the electorate is black, and even if we’re reduced to eating twigs and berries, 80% minimum will stick with him. Another 20% minimum is head-up-their-butts hardcore lefties - with only a GOP alternative, they’ll stay with him unless he declares kinetic military activity on another half-dozen countries. And another 10 20% are clueless (I’ve seen them vote in Chicago for decades) - they’ll vote for whoever the MSM promotes (take a wild guess) and whoever spends the most on commercials (see George Soros and the SEIU for the answer to that one).

The Left is turning on him because he is now officially a “warmonger”.

He is more than a warmonger. He is officially a "war criminal". He should be deported to the Hague for trial. At least, that is what they normally say in the MSM.

The rest are turning on him based on their gasoline and grocery bills.

He didn't pay their mortgage. He didn't pay their gas. In fact, he didn't do anything he said he was going to do.

This may sound a little racist. I do not mean it in that way. But, Blacks more than most can spot a bullsh@tter when they meet one. It is based in the Peace Palace in The Hague, Netherlands. ... The Statute of the International Court of Justice

I’m surprised his approval rating is that high. Who are the fools who actually like him?

Who still likes him and who will actually still vote for the kenyan commie pig bastard in chief 0dumb0 in 2012?

Pretty much the same delusional turds who voted for him the first time. Socialist demoRATs and their useful idiots (like my liberal socialist educated dumb ass Phd boss from U-W Madison-- need I say any more) will ALWAYS vote socialist demoRAT no matter what. Their allegiance is to their left-wing ideology & agenda, which is their defacto religion. 0dumbo could be raping & pillaging infants on stage in front of millions of people and the socialist, demoRAT commie pigs & ignorant demoRAT voters (like my my dumb ass brother & even dumber ass sister-in-law) will always vote for the socialist. The only way these ignorant fools would vote against 0dumb0 would be if a miracle occurred & he became a conservative, born again Christian and started to repeal his own leftist-marxist socialist programs & spending. THEN & ONLY THEN would you see the left turn against him if left the demonic fold of socialism-facism-communism-liberalism. Rape-murder-pillaging-lies-demonic behavior.... all of this makes no difference to lefties when it comes time to pulling the voting lever for socialist demoRATs.

Looks cute devolve.
Need to drag out Obama diving naked into the oil hole gif too.
In my opinion polls are going to go up and down for a long time yet, way too soon to judge anything.

Yikes, thought I hit post already!

I agree that what you state has been the norm in political science up until obama... but a trumped up speech/pep rally for an Arizona congresswoman, who was shot by a leftard extremist from Arizona, sent him from 39% approval up to 53% approval... he can win and unless we pray hard and work hard... he will win again. The state media is still a powerful force and they hate us all and will attack anyone we nominate. There is no guarantee of our victory... none at all.

45 percent said the president did not deserve reelection, while 47 percent said he did

That 47% have enabled this Marxist, radical POS to damage America to the extent he has and they want more.

Scary.

.

Yup

0ponzi was babbling about cutting our dependency on foreign oil - a few days ago he was in Brazil telling them he wanted the US to buy as much oil from Brazil/Soros as we can

BSing about alternate fuel sources - after algore has admitted using American grown corn to make ethanol is stupid and not environmentally sound - as it raises the cost of beef, chicken, hogs - and - corn

And it produces less mileage per gallon - less power - and is corrosive to fuel and engine components - and the government subsidizes this economic joke

As Planned.
