Another poll for the "liberal" media to ignore |

1. They Are Far Too Busy Predicting Dems Demise |
|
which in the end....when November comes rolling around, some, all, most, a tiny fraction hopefully will come to their senses and not return the GOP to power.
That's my prediction.

2. Back up again today. Seems consistently to stay around that 50 % area. |
|
Funny how all we ever hear from the MSM is his falling approval ratings and yet they have been around that same % for months now.

6. Now the narrative seems to be that his policies are not popular but he is. |
|

This cracked me up this morning on Morning Joe. I turned on the tv to check the weather, and they were touting that Chuck Todd was coming up with this poll. I knew the presidential approval had gone up, so I thought I'd see how they covered it. Guess what? It started right off not with his approval, but with how "For the first time! Voters! Disapprove! Of Obama's! Policies!"
Because to lead with his approval going up would have been the sane thing to do. So they went the other way! You just have to laugh. They're that awful these days.

9. It was that poll I was referring to. It doesn't make any sense to me. |
|
people "personally" like him but not his policies? But people don't know him personally...something is definitely wrong with the polls. I'd like to see how the questions were phrased...

8. Except nobody knows about the real policy being enacted |
|
The policy covered in the media is composed mostly of GOP strawman arguments used to keep the Fox News audience outraged at their government.

They cherry pick polls to paint the doom and gloom picture for Democrats.Both NBC and PPP have our president back at 50 percent approval.And now Gallup has him back at 51 percent.Have you heard them mention these?Of course not.
History leason for some about Generic Ballets.1994 partys tied.1996,1998,2000,2002,2004 Democrats lead Republicans.This alone says they should not be taken too seriously.Plus they are tied according to polls which Is why the media now focus on enthusuam.Remember this to take back Congress Republicans need an even better year than Democrats had In 2006.Then we picked up 30 House seats and 6 senate seats.If a democrat keeps Murtha seat then Republicans will again be 0 In special election.Yes Republicans will probally win a seat In hawaii but that Is because 2 democrats are spliting the vote.
Many wrote off Sestak In PA but he stands a good shot at beating Spector In the primary despite all establishment Democrats supporting Spector.Polls are showing him basiclly tied with Toomey.And this Is before Democrats can go on the offense on Toomey.You have new poll with reid now competive In Nevada.Things are looking up In Ohio.In NC If Marshall wins the primary she stands chance at beating Burr.While I don't support Crist he may very well win In Florida and caucus with Democrats.And In Kentuckey If Republicans nominate Rand Paul his view and a good Democratic campagina gainst him could put the Kentuckey In Play.These are hardly doom and gloom sceniros for Democrats.
And In the chance of Republicans taking the House they likely won't have It for long.For the House to change parties this quickly means with Obama's reelection In 2012 It could flip again.Especilly when voters see they do nothing but oppose everything and will likely overreach.If economy continues to Improve and Obama continues to have 50/51 approvol come fall I wouldn't count on Speaker Bohner just yet.
This does not feel like 1994.I remember that year and this Is not 1994 part 2.
