Oh, Bam! President´s approval rating plummets to 38 percent overall, just 34 percent
Daily Mail ^ | 12/10/13 | David Martosko

Barack Obama is facing poll numbers that are now in the same territory as President George W. Bush´s following Hurricane Katrina. The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute released numbers on Tuesday showing that just 38 percent of registered voters approve of the job Obama is doing as president, with a whopping 56 percent saying they disapprove. The president has lost his landslide electoral edge among young voters, too, with a negative 41–49 percent rating among 18- to 29-year-old voters. His once formidable support among Hispanics has also evaporated: They now support him by an historically small 50–43 percent margin.

What good was it when they pushed Bush’s number down in his second term? They used it to parlay into an Obama presidency. He has to be seen as unpopular as a turd in a punch bowl if we are ever going to roll back his disastrous policies.

It’s so nice to have the British Press to provide us with our news. I hope that our MSM is busy over in the UK spreading the news for them.

Obama’s biggest mistake is also the most understandable for a narcissist to make: He chose only those who suck up to him as his staff and advisers. With that, he never got a contrary word or another point of view. Even from his media.

All hands, down with the ship! Me, Obama, I’ll record it all for posterity, then I have to package it up, mail it, etc. Sorry I won’t be able to join you. Ta ta! Now down you go!

When the full truth about obamacare finally arrives around March 2014, the voters will be hunting down Democrats in the streets with dogs and pitchforks. We won’t need no stinkin polls then.

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford is polling at 49% after admitting smoking crack cocaine. So people are less happy about Obamacare than they would be Barry smoking crack. (Jay ‘The Chin’ Leno)

If Republicans get back the Senate, they need to hold hearings on the manipulation of the 2012 election. That would tie everything together -- Bengahzi, the IRS scandal, you can "keep your plan", election fraud, etc.

The Democrats have to be completely de-legitimized.

Yep. Dear Reader has virtually assured the death of the DemoSocialist party, as he's decided that Obamacare will NOT be repealed while he's in office.

He's going to force the whole country to endure a period of excruciating pain because his cockamamie leftist theories hold more weight in his mind than empirical evidence to the contrary.

The Dems and the left are going to pay for that for decades to come.

You make vibrant point- yet, we have 4 generations of complete idiots to deal with, in a semi-intelligent discourse. Combined with non-immigrants and corrupt voting status quo... Our social/cultural breakdown is currently unavoidable. Prepare to survive and rebuild.

Just think what the real rollout of Obamacare will do to these numbers, along wit an incipient recession.

Part of the reason they are not flocking to the pubs is the fact that the pubs have given them no reason to.

I sure wish Obama would just take himself out before the rest of the country has to do it.
