Daily Presidential Tracking Poll -- 0bama now at -14!
Rasmussen Reports ^ | 23 August 2009 | Scott Rasmussen

Posted on 08/23/2009 6:35:52 AM PDT by ScottinVA

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 27% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-one percent (41%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -14. These figures mark the lowest Approval Index rating yet recorded for this President. The previous low of -12 was reached on July 30 (see trends).

Prior to today, the number who Strongly Approved of the President’s performance had never fallen below 29%. Some of the decline has come from within the President’s own party. Just 49% of Democrats offer such a positive assessment of the President at this time.

At the other end of the spectrum, today’s total for Strongly Disapprove matches the highest level yet recorded. The 41% mark was reached just once before and that came one week ago today. Seventy percent (70%) of Republicans now Strongly Disapprove along with 49% of those not affiliated with either major party.

Check out our review of last week’s key polls to see “What They Told Us.” Topics include health care, the deficit, stimulus package, state polls and more.

The Presidential Approval Index is calculated by subtracting the number who Strongly Disapprove from the number who Strongly Approve. It is updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern (sign up for free daily e-mail update). Updates also available on Twitter and Facebook.

Overall, 48% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President's performance. Fifty-one percent (51%) now disapprove.

What is especially good about this is his strongly approves have been going down(sometimes up a little, but always going back down. Being under 30 percent is great), this is when you know he is losing his supporters. If strongly disapproves were the only indicator that would not be as good, but I am hoping they will leap to about 50 percent soon!

In the last 6-8 weeks, Obama has finally been revealed to America for what he is.

“There are now going to be more conversations where the strong disapprovers will be able to talk without being screamed at. We may be close to the tipping point.”

I hope you are right. Liberals often believe they are the only ones who should be allowed to give their opinion.

Hate to disagree with ya.

Calling him a Socialist implies that he’s comparable to West European leaders and politicians. Not even close. Just imagine Calling Chavez and Castro Socialists.

He’s no Socialist; he’s an Alinsky Marxist, through and through.

We should call a spade, a spade.

If Zer0’s Marxist agenda isn’t stopped in its tracks BEFORE the 2010 election and his union thugs aren’t prevented from physically intimidating Americans, a banana republic would be created and the ballot box would be rigged.

Of course, to stop his agenda is no small feat and will cause the possibility of civil war to rise exponentially.

America would have been much luckier if Zer0 was a real Zero. Unfortunately, the destruction to our beloved country proves that he’s much worse. He should be called a huge minus.

You are welcome. Please keep spreading the word to all you know. It's not over yet, but we have them on the ropes and need to keep pummling them until they are down, and out for the count.

As time goes on, more and more regular people will see what an arrogant a** Øbama is. Not to mention his diabolical agenda.
++++++++++++++

http://www.democrats-against-obama.org/home.html - where were they last July, right? Not enough of ‘em then...not enough of ‘em now...they may be closing ranks...

Embarassment and ridicule (Alinsky Rule #5) are hard things to handle. They have an absolute embarassment on their hands, for which they have only themselves to blame.

When we see the Ds approval of Barky go down, we’ll really be able to block him then.

Next - run up to 2010!

See Mugabe to see how bad it can get. And do not think it cannot happen here. Our union friends and neighbors will follow him to the end. Look what happened in Germany.

Hussein could empty the jails like...California is doing. He wants our troops in Afghanistan as far away from America as he can get them.

Actually something can be done. The minority can shut the government down using the quorum call. I forget how it works exactly but they can place a ban on the senate and stop all senate business until it is lifted. They are threatening to do it now if health care is passed, but I say do it before it is passed, shut it down and keep it down until 2010, this is what the Republicans threatened yesterday and hopefully they will do it.

the fraud from abroad has little time left. Then again a lot of damage can be done in a little time.

The remaining 31% hadn't stopped laughing long enough to give an answer by the time the poll had to go out. ;')

Looks as if the guys in back are wondering about that, too. Why do you crouch, -14Bama? Crossing the bar must be a cold, hard pain.

Mark it down Freepers, it was the “wee wee” word that did it.

These people don't understand how freedom really works. They can not force this permenately. The 2nd admentment insures the gov't can not take over and usurp law. That's why it's so important. The founders understood that gov't could never get powerful enough to rule by fiat.

These marixt don't get this and will most likely be voted out in 2010, so even if they did pass this POS HC legislation conservatives will obliterate it in 2011 or sooner!

Remember, the American people still are in power by constitutional right, not the representatives. As bad as the DBM are even they understand this, they are just too foolish too recognize what Obama really is because they were selfimposedly star-struck like childish morons!

The MSM are slowly starting to grasp the foolish mistake they made.
