I quoted your last 2 posts where you sited Gallup, the second said going down when
the Gallup poll you quoted clearly shows it went UP 1 point. ...nice try. IN any case
it must sad when such elation is displayed over such a small difference....pettiness?

I think that even the dumbest of liberals are starting to understand just how much power the congress has over the economy. Obama while a senator voted for every one of Bush's budgets. Now he wants pin the blame on only Bush. He is having a hard time making that stick as he is spending far more than Bush did and far more risky spending at that. Today the feds announce that we are actually sliding back to where we started in 08. So next time Obama opens his mouth and asks if Americans want to go back to 08...tell him we are already there.

There is no shortage of stupid people on the street to get these poll numbers from. Ask them who the vice president is. LOL

When you look into the numbers further, much of the recent "disapprove" numbers are actually coming from those on the far left. Some people seem to see these poll numbers as some way to say that more and more people think the way they do when it comes to Obama's policies/actions, when actually these "new disapprovers" are coming from the complete opposite side of things. OR some people interpret these numbers to mean that Obama may lose the next election.

Do you think that the recent abandonment of some of those on the far left (in terms of these polls) means that those people will vote against Obama in the next election?

It won't take much in 2012 to get these folks back on the bandwagon.

I was very elated today to see the Rasmussen numbers. Obama had been going up from -20 to -10 but it took 8 days for that to happen and all of a sudden in 2 days he went from -10 to -22. Now that is really something to me in that -22 ties his record for low. Rasmussen explains in the article about the poll how the numbers manage to be so erratic. I wonder if the other pollers do that.

Obama wins easily if he's around 50% in 2012. The libertarian TP members WILL vote third party and hand the election to the Dems.

Two weeks before the next election they'll fall in line with the

Try, try again. The going down was for the RCP. I committed the heinous crime of misplacing the sentence. So sue me.

Small difference?

Bwhahahahahahah!

Whatever works for his numbers to keep tanking.
