Depressed? These are outrageously...I use that word purposely and I’ll say it again...outrageously bad numbers for Obama at this point in the election. It is only down from here for him. He is at 44% in a state he has to have and in a state he got 51% in last time. And this is at a time when maybe 5% of the voters are even paying attention.
Most voters don’t even begin to pay attention until after Labor Day. Almost all voters have more important (to them) things to do than worry about a subject they hate anyway...politics.
That 44% is dropping toward true bottom for Obama, which in Ohio with its union workers and minority populations, is probably somewhere around 40%. Those undecideds out there will break for the challenger in 4 months time.
Obama looks to lose Ohio by a greater margin than he won it last time. No need to be depressed. Just don’t ever expect giant margins in politics, people vote self-interest...sometimes self-interest takes strange forms but it is self-interest anyway. If Obama loses by 15 points in Ohio - 58-42, which is possible with these numbers now - that is a massive, massive landslide. As one other poster posted before, he’s toast.
The TREND is your FRIEND! And that is going Mitts direction. Today more BAD news for the Pretender in Chief.... lowering of the GDP figure and lower consumer confidence as well as an uptick in unemployment benefits. The stock market is jittering and Obama is shaking at the knees....
They are indeed!
Woo hoo!
