Approval Rating Hits 53% as Health Plan Loses Public Support
WASHINGTON -- Support for President Barack Obama's health-care effort slipped substantially over the past five weeks -- particularly among those who already have insurance -- as Congress has struggled to finalize legislation and attention has focused on its high price, a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.
In a bid to regain momentum, Mr. Obama is shifting the way he is selling his top domestic priority, focusing less on how the revamp would reduce costs and more on how it would protect those who already have insurance -- the people who need to be won over. One of the president's top advisers acknowledged Wednesday that the White House's prior focus had been unsuccessful.

A nice thought, but the "Chicago Way" would have all employees ecstatically applauding while M-16s were pointed at them off-camera.
At last check, Rasmussen had him at 49% and Zogby had him at 48%.
Speaking of frightening people, are you aware the late-night
jokes about a certain person are missing?
Leno, Conan, Fergason, etc., none dare tell jokes about the messiah.
They did with Clinton and definitely Bush.
There are soooooo many good jokes to be made yet they’re silent like good little puppies. Do we have a gestapo here now?
He DOES look like a doof, doesn’t he? LOL!
Alinskys goal was to slowly turn the United States into a Communist dictatorship; to this end he tried to convince various groups of poor people and labor unions to push for legislation in that direction; he did this by appealing to their self-interest whether valid or not instead of using charismatic leadership but now we have Obama, who is skilled in the Alinsky method and charismatic.

I never miss an opportunity to thank the mindless libs who put this Marxist in the Oval Office. Our country and republic are under direct attack and it needs to be stopped.
He needs to be around women because men scare him?
The other day for the first time in my life I was polled.
The polling organization was something called the Siena Poll and it basically asked questions concerning the economy and NY politics. By the time the poll ended I’m sure the nice young lady asking the questions was convinced she had somehow either called some maniac waiting on line for an anger management session or connected to the nearest looney bin.
The questions asked me to rate politicians like Andrew Cuomo,
Gov Patterson and Mayor Bloomberg and the job they were doing.
Charlie Manson used the same technique on his cult
Probably, he not much of a manly man.
Not appealing.
(keepin it clean)
Oh, me too. No such luck.
We would never be heard from again.
He may be skilled in method, but I have never found him charismatic. His speech at the convention did not have me genuflecting as some others did. I could tell it was all talk and no substance.
no problem
it is good to know the silent majority are now starting to fight back, hopefully this is the beginning to stop this country going down the tube
BUMP
Would you buy a used car [company] from this man?
LLS
Poor 0zer0, he can’t even pull off an effective infomercial disguised as a news conference anymore so he has to go to Kroger’s for a town hall - LOL!
0zer0’s poll numbers are tanking so he has to shift to “Campaigner In Chief” and continue his lies campaign.
His epic failure on all fronts is coming to light. The only thing bi-partisian about 0zer0 is the BIPARTISIAN OPPOSITION to his fascist ideas. His Porkulus bill is driving up unemployment and the deficit. His socialized Soylent Green Dr. Assisted Suicide Healthcare is political suicide for dumbcrats so even they are having a tough time supporting it. Better send out Rahm like a good Chicago thug with the steak knives again to get them to fall in line.
0zer0’s race baiting didn’t work this week, so better blame GWBush again. Maybe folks will forget that you voted for the $800 Billion bank bailout last fall along with all the other Dumbcrats. Then supported the $800 Billion Porkulus. Then supported the AIG and Government Motors and CryCar bailouts. Add it tup. No wonder 0zer0 has a $2+ Trillion deficit. Now lets add another $1 - 1.5 Trillion for 0zer0 Socialized Soylent Green Dr. Assisted Suicide Healtcare.
Hey 0zer0 - is this how your Pay-As-You-Go plan is supposed to work? Maybe you should rename it the “You pay as I go” plan.
Where’s my bailout? I’m still waiting for my tax cut, along with 95% of all other Americans.
As word gets out about his plans for Senior’s healthcare I predict he will be in the low 40’s by the end of August.
Yep. And when Congress gets back from break.....watch how they ‘repackage’ the health care proposal. Stay vigilant.
Here’s hoping the Kenyan slips on a banana and breaks his F’n neck.
