They have turned out their latest facts and it seems that Obama has slipped to his lowest numbers in their polls. I suppose most of you progs will think that these numbers must have come from Rasmussen but they don't have him that low.

1) It's a quick poll over a period of 3 days. Not the best criteria.
2) You apparently ignored the other poll that said Americans still view Obama more favorably on the economy than Boehner and Reid.

Is it really anything to celebrate? Even though it's too early to tell, do you honestly think throwing a Republican into office will fix anything? They (politicians) all say one thing and do another. It's a never ending cycle.

As nutty as I think most tea Partiers are, they don't fit that mold.

It's only a snapshot in time. It's meaningless.

So now Gallup is a reliable pollster? Oh, of course. Now that they're showing lower numbers for Obama, the anti-Obama crowd thinks Gallup is a good poll. Got it!

Hell, I'd be happy with someone who could successfully run a lemonade stand as opposed to the fiscally challenged mental midget we have in office right now.

WELL? DID all the promise of HOPEY CHANGEY THINGY help us out! nope not on your life. Where is Obama being a new era of a differnt type of People's President, remember those words, i do, have them on tape.

Community organizer, and it shows, would not be in this mess we are in, if we had a President who knew what the hell he was doing. Hopey Changey Thingy, don't buy it any more, a line of crap.

Wait! wasn't Obama the president that was suppose to be our Savior and fix all of our Problems, he was going to fix everything for all people, BULL?

I'm so disappointed with Obama I can bafrely see straight.
I voted for the guy, cautiously buying all the "audacity of hope" hype.

Then I sat back and weatched as he doled-out hundreds of millions of dollars to any bank or corporation or financial institution that put their hand out. And he demanded scant little accountability from them to ensure the money was well-spent. For example, the bank bailout was made primarily so as to free-up lending to Americans and small businesses. But very few if any banks did this.

Then he passed a socialistically-nuanced health care reform that nobody wants or understands.
All that money spent! Where are the jobs? Why is the total U.S. economy now smaller than it was when the recession began in 2008?

The only smart thing he did was arrange for the fake-killing of Bin Laden. The timing for him was perfect. (Gee, what a coincidence: Bin Laden is offed right when Obama's approval rating is at it's lowest and he knows it's gonna get worse with this debt-limit thing that is happening now!)

And finally, I watched as Obama morphed from a seemingly hip, cool, in-touch, savvy, bold presidential candidate to a smarmy aloof elitist, who's in farther over his head than Keanu Reeves trying to play Shakespeare.

It's a cryin' shame.

I didn't look at the survey from the OP, but if his approval rating is over 20% it's too high.

You do realize that is because Obama's approval is tanking among liberals. Liberals think he is too moderate and as a result his disapproval among them has doubled since May.
