The problem with most of these polls and why they can't be trusted is that several of them notoriously oversample Democrats by a considerable amount.

Secondly, they poll registered voters, not likely voters.

They get the numbers they want that way. The tactic is to discourage Republicans and therby keep them from the polls.

This is a disaster for 0bama, he should be at 70% likeability, not clawing for 50%. ROFLMAO
As of yesterday, Obama's favorability was at 42%.

My issue with Obama is his lack of leadership. He panders. He divides. He fear monsters, but he doesn't lead. He doesn't want to tell people the truth. The boat is sinking. It's time for hard choices. Even the densest amount us know it. It's time to admit that we (the people) have allowed the government to run us into a ditch. And unfortunately, sacrifice on the part of the people is the only way to get out of it.

I don't know who I'll vote for come November. But, it'll be the candidate who quits saying what we want to hear and starts saying what we need to hear.






True indeed!
