The Great Unifying POTUS. Using minorities to advance his political career and agenda. Libs sure don't change their spots.

Yeah, see you when Republicans win control of Congress!

BTW, an approval rating poll is not the same thing as an "would you re-elect Obama" poll.

Voters have lost faith in Obama to craft solutions to the country's economic challenges. Just 39% say they trust Obama more than GOPers in Congress, while 32% say they believe the GOP has the right ideas. That 7-point gap is down from a 29-point Obama advantage in the April '09 poll.

Only 39% of voters said they would vote to re-elect Pres. Obama if the election were held today, while 50% say they would vote for someone else.


This number is even worse than some other fairly recent polls.

No doubt, November will be a referendum on his policies.
Well....that explains all of those OOOPS stickers....

Of this list:

See if you can detect which pollster is an outlier.

Hint: It is NOT Rasmussen.

Here's a hint for you, it's 914 days until election day 2012 when President Obama will face an unkown challenger.

Their ever-increasing "entitlements" and freebies depend upon it.
