I know this poll lags a bit, but...
The market has been tanking, there’s virtually no leadership from the White House, and he’s still only -21.
This guy is going to be very, very hard to beat in 2012.
Are you reading this Paul Ryan?

Interesting to see the upward momentum of the red curve or Strongly Disapprove versus the sideways movement of the green curve or Strongly Approve.

I read the green curve as the greedy curve strongly approve.

To: Nonstatist
He loses any two way race. He doesn’t intend to run in a two way race.

Nice to see the strongly disapprove moving back up again. It dropped after the elections last year and some of the passion on the right went into the background along with speaker Pelosi. Perhaps it takes a downgrade, and a 600 point drop in the Dow to get the Tea party back into the street.

This guy is going to be very, very hard to beat in 2012. To the contrary, I believe he's already a loser unless the GOP primary elections rescue him. Recall how he won in 2008: a sizeable shift among white, independent voters, a huge increase in black turnout, and a feckless opponent. White voters have turned against Obama by huge margins, his numbers among black voters are pathetic, and no GOP candidate is going to make McCain's mistakes this time around.
Barry has to draw to an inside straight in the Electoral College, holding at least three of these four states to win: Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia. The 2010 elections ushered in strong GOP majorities in Ohio and Florida, a sizeable shift toward the GOP in Virginia and North Carolina, and three of the states have new GOP governors. That trend will be very difficult for Barry to overcome, and he knows it.

Aren't these numbers gathered from the previous three days? If so; this -21 number only includes calls from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m. Monday. The news about the downgrade was in the Saturday-Sunday numbers, but the -650 stock crash would only be reflected in the Monday numbers; which only influences 1/3 of the polling data for today.
Tomorrow might be more interesting.

“Barry has to draw to an inside straight in the Electoral College, holding at least three of these four states to win: Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia. “
In my part of Ohio, Obama is doing just fine. If the election were today, he’d carry the blue northeast part.
My biggest concern is our candidates and their appeal to the independents. The independents I know are going to vote Obama by default. Each of the GOP contenders seems to be fatally flawed. So that part about not making McCain’s mistakes... don’t count on it.

Only if you believe these polls... and there is absolutely no reason to trust them. Go look at a graph of Rasmussen's polling and it is a sign wave... up to -11 down to -21 and it oscillates between these two figures on a regular basis... and when did anyone before now ever ask the question, “SOMEWHAT SUPPORTS THE PRESIDENT”? That's right... a tiny bit of support is all you need to be included in the -21 figure. obamao is at 38% approval and falling... these polls are no different than the cooked unemployment numbers. Why are they cooked? Some are for propaganda reasons... some like this poll... keep subscribers subscribed and keeps the race tight and interest high... which means Scottie makes more money.

This guy is going to be very, very hard to beat in 2012. I agree - even if we could count on an honest election, which we can't.
If Obama wasn't black skinned his approval rating would be in the low 20% area. As it is, he never gets below 40%.
Obama's skin color guarantees him a solid core of non-white and white liberal supporters who will support him no matter what.
They wouldn't care if he finally admitted on national TV that he is a queer, white hating, commie, al-Qaeda leader, born in Kenya and dedicated to he destruction of America. In fact, that would just strengthen their support for him
