Boxing up a few things today.
First day in Texas will be 09OCT2011.
Talk about the mushy middle...
Rassmusen’s polls are mushy.
I am still trying to figure out why people post these things each day. Kinda pointless given that Rasmussen is cookin’ with special sauce now in his polls anyway.
Who are the nutcases that strongly approve of obamma performance? Man!
Anyone wonder what approval numbers Hitler had in Germany in 1934-35? Wonder what Hitler’s approval numbers would have been in 1945? Nothing like the destruction of one’s country to pull their approval numbers down; don’t ya think?
Meanwhile, there’s no spine and guts anywhere in this country when it comes to exposing the enemies within and getting them thrown out. We have truly disgraced our forefathers and all those who sacrificed to keep this nation free.
Corrupt, morally-bankrupt politicians, at every level of government, are stealing the future of our children and grandchildren. God willing, We The People wake up before it’s too late.
I don't really think that's the problem. The lessening in disapproval intensity has much to do with the liberals getting hot pants for Obama again for his brinksmanship game on the "jobs" bill and tax hikes. They again see hope in the destruction of the American economy.
COME ON DOWN!!!
The “somewhat approve” are trying to prove to the pollster that they’re not racist.
Yep. And, they saw this coming with the unemployment report. They even tried to soften up the sellers by using the “glimmer of hope” statement.
Pathetic. Tomorrow’s Index might be epic.
Yall will feel at home down here.
He lost me when he refused to predict MA for Scott Brown; Rassmusen appears to ALWAYS be cooking with his special sauce.
Even though they're left-leaning, PPP APPEARS to be more accurate than Rassmusen.
OTOH, I think they all have their own variety of “special sauce” that they cook with.
For starters, a good percentage of the black population of the United States, too many of whom are, unfortunately, incapable of thinking beyond skin color.
Then there are assorted folks with close ties to the ruling elite, e.g. some unionists and some crony capitalists, who seem to relish big government tyranny, provided their own oxen aren't being gored and/or they can personally benefit by some government favor or handout.
A third group would be the hate America leftists, who reflexively side with the nation's enemies against the US and her allies.
52 disapprove to 46 approve. We’re beyond the margin of error.
21 strongly approve to 39 strongly disapprove. We’re beyond the looking glass, people. Only 7% just somewhat disapprove, the rest do so strongly. More than 31% of approvers only somewhat approve. Those without passion outnumber those with passion in their approval by almost 1.5 to 1. Any way you slice these statistics, they come up one-term President. Time to do the happy dance, albeit cautiously.
After today’s economc news, he should be at -50!!!!!
Oops. That’s only 13% merely somewhat disapprove. Our passionate disapprovers outnumber their passionate approvers by nearly 2-1. Our passionate disapprovers outnumber our non-passionate disapprovers by 300%!!! Happy dance. Happy dance.
VERY, VERY good analysis, justiceseeker93. Thanks for the ping/post.
A 4th group would be “useful idiots” in general.
It's not just skin color, unfortunately. If that's all it were, it would be somewhat understandable. But most Blacks will vote against a Black who isn't an across-the-board left winger.
Then they go to church on sunday and worship like snake-handling West Virginia hillbillies. Go figure.
