The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 25% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-three percent (46%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -21
Obama’s “strongly disapprove” number is at 46%. When Bush left office, Bush’s “strongly disapprove” number was 43%. In just 11 months, Obama has become even more politically toxic than Bush.
Perhaps a message from God!
But of course Gibbs et al don’t even NOTICE the polls! Or if they do, they attribute falling numbers to “misinformation” distributed by Republicans.
Drudge is headling with this. Go Matt!
What polls are those?
Gallop or the average of all polls?
[Is this spike in strongly disapprove a result of the 1 am vote and the bribing of holdout Dems?]
No doubt. And I bet the voters who moved into the strongly disapprove column were independents. The Republicans are already there.
Three years is a long, long, long time in politics. And IMO the odds of Obama not running again are slim to none and slim just left town.
Into the Abyss BUMP!!!
This is a bit confusing.
This is on the front page of rasmussen:
“Most African-American voters (58%) Strongly Approve while most white voters (53%) Strongly Disapprove. “
And this is deeper in the demos:
“The President earns approval from 37% of White voters and 98% of African-American voters. “
After I posted those two figures, I see where the discrepancy is - Strongly approve vs Approve.
Great minds think alike.
My question is: While 88% of Republicans DISAPPROVE of Obama’s job performance, who are those folks (around 10%) who still approve of him? How can you? Every last GOP senator voted against cloture of Obamacare. How do you justify your thought process? If you are a party member, start acting like one and stop being charitable to the enemy would be a start.
“Dear READER...”
Much more accurate terminology! Kudos....
Ummm.where were all these outfits you keep talking about that were supposed to “win” mt for the Democrats in last month's new Jersey/Virgina elections then?
NJ was a “toss up” according to the last polls going into the elections. If they couldn't steal an election that was a “toss up”, what makes you think they can steal other elections, with 0bozo’s strongly disapprove at a massive 46% after just one year?
Nothing will stop the bill. Further Reid is so sure we are all going to love this bill that he has put a provision in the body of the bill that will make it nearly impossible to remove any of the provisions.
Very Good!
I think MNJohnnie came up with “Dear Reader”...I just picked up on it. :)
I noticed that, as well...what was hurting President Bush was his 'strongly approve' rating of only 13%. Taken in tandem with his 'strongly disapprove' rating of 43%; that results in -30. Keep in mind, however; that 43% isn't as bad as Zero's 46%; it took Bush EIGHT YEARS to get there; and the commiemedia was beating on President Bush 24/7. Imagine where Zero would be if the commiemedia was focusing as hard on Zero as they do on Palin? Rush should be interesting today...
Hillary versus Palin might be the next election. By then O will be so despised that the dems will turn out for Hillary and perhaps the independents. I think Hillary would be a winner. Much as I despise her, she is better than th thug anyday.
And he WILL get slaughtered at the polls if he does.
As far as I am concerned, 0bozo is finished.
Nothing is going to save this sucker.
It’s all us kindergartners with crayons that are making up these polls.
