Health care bounce?
LMAO
56% diapprove and 44% approve is at -12 is same as two days ago when sd/sa was at -21.
Everyone cuts people slack on Christmas.
The bigger news is his overall popularity. Total approve/disapprove is 44/56, giving a -12. The strongly disapproving critics are having an effect. We may see more of this after Christmas family get-togethers provide more opportunity for snide remarks about Obama.
Don’t worry. As the truth comes out about what is in this bill we’ll drive his numbers into the dirt. They rush to pass a bill to “help” the uninsured yet it doesn’t kick in for over 3 years? What B.S. We need to hammer this point.
The into the abyss metric (with a single day of +1, only a bit over his all time low abyss measurement), measures overall approval versus strong disapproval.
Have a Merry Christmas, my fellow poll nerds. See you when numbers start getting posted again!
His popularity is soaring. Must be the Hawaii trip.
“Overall Approve: 44%
Overall Disapprove: 56%”
Those are the numbers that matter to me. Sorry to be a grump but the whole -16 or -21 thing isn’t as relevant imho. I go to the ras site and it seems to take me ten years to get to the number I am interested in: % approve. At the end of teh day when it’s time to vote his simple approval number is the story.
15% African American
14% Hispanic
29% Total
(Percent of population, not voters)
That’s not the Christmas present I was hoping he would give me but, I guess, coming from him, that’s a pretty nice one.
However. my birthday is coming up soon, and so is my wife’s, so maybe he’ll double up on those negatives for us?
