Poll Shows Problems for Obama, Peril for Senate Democrats
NationalJournal ^ | April 28, 2014 | Ronald Brownstein

Posted on 04/28/2014 9:44:15 AM PDT by PoloSec

President Obama's approval rating remains ominously weak among the constituencies that could tip the battle for control of the Senate in November, the latest Allstate/National Journal Heartland Monitor Poll has found.

In the latest poll, Obama also faces a formidable intensity gap that could foreshadow turnout challenges for Democrats: The share of adults who strongly disapprove of his performance (39 percent) is nearly double that of those who strongly approve (21 percent).

And he will be out coming up on 2 1/2 years to go.

Considering the damage he's already done and the lengths he'll go to impose his will, I wouldn't be so sure of that.

If 0bama decided to run for a 3rd term (Amendment XXII be damned), who would stop him?

What about those 7 million happy Obamacare customers?

On MSNBC they say that Obama-care is a huge success.

That Senate Dems are running on it.

That being against it is a loser for 2014.

Just political spin to hold back the panicking?

November is still a long way off.

As the primaries happen, and the R candidates are settled, MediaMatters and OFA will start receiving their NSA files, IRS info, and Obamacare healthcare records.

Then, the oppo propaganda will start in earnest.

EVERY R candidate for national office this year is going to have to assume that the Dem has ALL of this info on them, and plan accordingly.

Given the lefts affection for bad mouthing everyone whos not is step with their vile plans and purposes...the right does not want to “give the appearance’ of being similarly bent.

they mistake civility with buckling under apparently!

RNC committeeman Dave Agema calls the GOP the frightened bunny party.

At the first sign of trouble, they reflexively run for cover then shove a sacrificial lamb out into the open for the democrats.

“Don’t forget that the RATS tend to vote twice and get away with it.”

Nope, Runt Paul said voter fraud wasn’t a problem, and Republicans have overstated it.

I can beat that.

Remember just a few~ 6 months ago the report came out saying 6 to 7 mill Americans would have their insurance canceled by Obamacare?

And Dems responded that its just a few % of Americans so it was no big deal.

Now they are claiming that about the same number ‘signed up’ so its a huge success (isn't their a fine for not signing up?)

NOT TO WORRY. CALM DOWN!!! The republicans will help the democrats recover. Boehner will get them amnesty no matter what and McCain, Snowe, and Collins will continue voting along democrat party lines.

Just to be clear the GOP hasn’t declared no repeal of Obamacare. I’ve never heard of the woman who said that.

Not that I don’t despise the Republican establishment. I know just what they are and they are worthless except when scared into standing up for something

The amnesty is not for votes it’s for money.

I hadn't either. But if she says that, the MSM will make her the face of the GOP in no time. She's already a "leader" according to them.

Not falling for this nonsense again. Seems I heard the same thing prior to the ‘12 general.
