Democrats Love Obama, 81 percent job approval

[seeinfweggos]

kind of put this place in perspective, doesn't it?

1. Does that mean that 19% are the noise makers here?

If DU reflected that poll, it would mean 19% of DU is showing all the outrage at Obama right now. Seems like a lot more than that.

5. actually the disapproval is only 13 percent

i don't think most (if any) of the people calling the president "sell-out, corporatist" etc. are democrats at all. most of the "disappointed" people whose support he has 'lost" never voted for him to begin with. a naderite message board is not reflective of dems, even with dem in the title. maybe it was once, but clearly it isn't now.

6. That would probably be about right

When I last went on an ignore binge I found it only took about a dozen ignores to stop most all the anti-Chavaz bullshit so I would say that 19% is about right.

2. huh?

they didnt ask me

3. That was before they allowed Lieberman to blow up the public option. n/t

14. I doubt most dems would blame dems for Lieberman.

Most dems aren't that stupid.

4. We'll see.

7. Looks to me like a lot of Democrats aren't paying attention. n/t

10. Take that poll in January when the public option is gone nt.

[whistler162]

11. I take this poll with the same grain of salt as the one with 852

respondents that said 80% of the Democrats surveyed wouldn't vote for Obama.

13. kick

15. Bliss is such an ignorant state.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

And a vast majority of them were behind Shrub at the start of the war in Iraq. So it just

shows how much in the dark most of America is.

16. I'm bookmarking this post, so I can point it out after Democrats

lose their majorities in the next election cycle and the "moderates" blame it all on the lack of support from liberals. Who are completely irrelevant. But vitally important. But irrelevant.

18. Bravo and well played

Completely agree with you, by the way. I'm bookmarking this one as well for future reference, since we are so "insignificant".

[seeinfweggos]

20. you mean the ones saying don't vote dem?

Yeah it couldn't be their fault

[AndrewP]

28. Exactly. I'm tired of being lectured about how I need to shut up and get with it

Good, a lot of people in the party gave him a thumbs up.

**Golf clap**


Happy?

17. This is probably not the day for this on DU!

:)

[azmouse]

19. Is it ever really the day on DU for any positive news on the President?

:shrug:

22. Let me ask a very simple question...

When were the opinions taken for this poll?

Last week? Tallied yesterday? Released today?

The political landscape has change just a little bit since then.

25. pollster.com

it's a rolling daily average of all the national polls every day.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

24. Well, that should tone down the alarm bells about the dangers of the left of the party not voting.

Or, voting 3rd party.

Seeing as how there's on 17% of us.

[NJmaverick]

26. Democrats do love him, unfortunately there are few Dems left here at DU

perhaps because of the daily hostility they face both personally and directed at the Democratic party and its office holders.

29. 47% overall, similar to reagan and clinton
