I don't think this is fake like someone wrote.

But the most interesting are those who approve and disapprove.

Not STRONGLY either or.

However, this poll will tell us one thing.

The extremely strong support that Obama had, the group of people that supported him strongly, are smaller.

And the group that dislikes him has grown.

The question is if the dislike is tilting towards hatred?  :-\


Hedge -

People I speak to are very angry over the polcies he is pushing.  They are barely making it now and wondering why is pushing all these programs that are going to tax them more all while the economy is getting worse. 

Addtionally, the stimulus bill which he scared everyone into voting for is a failure already.

You have to start with why did people so strongly support Obama in the first place, they listened to his speaches where he was extemely vauge on just about everything he promised, but they didn't hear what he was saying.

Everything he is doing, all the information that makes up what Obama thinks is out there in his books in his radio interviews and in the people he associated with, but no one wanted to really examine that. Lets be brutally honest here if a white candidate had as many skeletons in their closet as Obama they would have never even won a primary.

I live in Illinois and the guy he was running against for the senate seat would have destroyed him accept for a scandal where his private divorce records were leaked, hmmmm strange. Or when Obama was running for the state legislature, he pulled some underhanded shit to get real competition removed from the ballot. He is part of chicago political machine, I know how fucked up this state is and expected no less when they moved the chicago stooges to Washington.

So people listened but they didn't hear what Obama was saying, no they are going hey wait a minute what the fuck is he doing? Well the information was there they just chose to ignore it and now its coming back to bite them in the ass.

I didn't say it was fake, I said it's way off the mark from all the other polls taken over the last month on realclearpolitics.com.  They often are.  I just think it's better to look at the average of polls than it is to take the poll furthest from that average as a realistic Representative of approval/disapproval.  Kind of a no brainer.  I mean each one of us could run out and find the specific poll that gives the numbers we want to see.  What's the point of doing that?

I totally agree, many on here said that if he was white he wouldnt have even had a chance and I totally agree. I also agree that a lot of ppl didnt listen to his speeches but simply got caught up in the whole hope and change BULL SHIT If you looked at his record and actually listened to and were able to decipher his double speak you saw this coming, Ill be honest even I didnt think it would be this bad though...

Some of my friends are now asking me stuff like:

"How did you know he was going to push these cray things?"

"How did you know he was this extreme to the left?"

"Where is this going"

"Why werent we told?"


My answer is always the same -

"Shut ESPN off and turn on CNBC & Bloomberg"

"Put down SI and pick up the WSJ"

I told people back from the second primary debate that he would be a disaster if he believed half the things he said, and not even I thought he would be THIS bad. I thought he would atleast have enough sense not to push through a trillion dollar stimulus package after we had just bailed out Wall Street with 700 billion.
