2. Back over 60: Here's why: |
|
1) Cheney in the news. That always reminds people how fucked up the previous administration was.
2) Sottomayor hearings. Reminds people how much of a GOOD thing it was that Obama was elected

9. glen beck's +/- margin of error |
|
has the president at 32% approval rating.
Did glen incite rioting or ask his listeners to kill anyone today?

Rasmussen gives me the giggles every time I look at it. I love that they use the "strongly approve" number for their top number. It's like they were so pissed that Bush polled in the twenties that they had to find a way to make sure it didn't look like Obama is doing better. So they broke everything down to get a 20-something number at the head of their stories. They're so crazy desperate it makes me laugh and laugh!

20. Seriously, I looked at their daily tracking poll today and could not make sense of it. |
|
Do you approve or disapprove...simple, right? But NO, they have to make it so freaking complicated. I was like WTF? What a waste of space on the internet.

19. That sounds like nothing more than a within-the-margin fluctuation |
|
Anyway, as far as I can see, even for those of us who have more mixed feelings about the presidency so far, I don't see what possible good is accomplished by declining poll numbers, so - woo! I guess :)

The Media keeps trying to say he Is losing support yet every poll not Ras has him 57 and up national.
Here Is a laugh for you.At another board Republicans says all these pollsters Gallup,CBS,NBC,Washington Post,and even Fox are too ProDemocrat.
Always remember Obama has to deal with more than any President since FDR and Is In better shape than Junior or Clinton was at this time In their terms.
