Keep Talking, Mr. President
American Thinker ^ | August 16, 2011 | Keith Riler

Gallup recently reported that President Obama dipped to a low in his favorable/unfavorable ratings. That news prompted this question: Is there a relationship between how much the president talks and his popularity?

Presumably, the president's fans would assert a positive relationship between the two -- that the more he talks and explains his policies, the better are his ratings. The president's detractors, I assume, believe the reverse: that there is a negative relationship, that as he talks his popularity declines.

He has nothing to say other than blame others and bellyache, so staying mum is better for his ratings.

Exactly like Hillary: when she spoke, her poll numbers went down; when she was smart enough to shut up, they went up.

Think this "president" will be smart enough to shut up? Don't bet on it.

The more he runs his mouth the dumber he appears.

Lying doesn’t work well when 50% of the people you are lying to, know that you are lying.It only makes you look stupid.

Today, Tuesday, August 16th, 2011...the razzzzzmussen folks have the stain's "Total Approval" rating sitting at about 44%!! While not as low as it must go, it is down from a 2.5 year long haitus at 47.5%. It is also approaching it's all time low of 42%!

I remember in the original movie "Superman", when the Hoover Dam began to crack...a little at first...a mere trickle...and then....and then.....!

Is the stain's dam finally beginning to "crack"???

Another strong indicator of the stain's failure will be when the dem/lib/prog/pops put up an opposing candidate to challenge the stain. I believe that would signal the end of the stain and his regime.

We're not there yet....not yet!

Or, as Ted Kennedy would say to Biden, “Keep talking, Joe ... it tickles!”

Please keep talking all liberals. When a liberals in general open their mouth, it’s just never good for them.
