Well Gallup has him on 61% which is 3 points higher than his share of the vote in the national election...

Rasmussen is on of the best polls. It only polls voters! That takes a large percentages of the band wagon riders and minority cheerleaders (who don't know shit about government) - out of the equation.

But the group "actual voters" didn't matter as much in 2008. People who had never voted were lining up for 2 miles in Atlanta to vote Obama. They didn't have landlines and had never voted before, so they didn't exist to ram.

They're a solid org... my belief is that when any polling org applies their own standards to who will vote and who won't, they're not gonne be accurate

Wouldn't Rasmussen include those new voters in their most recent polls? They only poll voters correct?

Jay Severin swears by them. That = credibility for me personally. I think it's a good poll.

Obama is going to get a good rep from a certian segment no matter what because he is the savior of the low-class.

shootfighter1 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 08, 2009, 09:53:06 AM »

Where is the 61% approval rating reported? Is that from July? I'll bet he is lower than that now. He's been in office 6 months and there is no significantly improvement in the economy, and he is creating major problems for this country's economy going forward. His erroneous prediction on unemployment rates not going over 8% with the stimulus is going to be coupled by another poor prediction on the growth of the economy over the 2 yr period since his election in Jan.

Not shocking to me that Rasmussen of all the recent polls is way off the mark of other polls. The disaproval rating higher than all others by far. Best idea is to look at the average of polls, not just Rasmussen, you're not going to get a good idea just looking at them alone. Especially when they so often and abruptly jump from the averages.

Gallup 7/5 - 7/7 1547 A 56 36 +20
Rasmussen Reports 7/2 - 7/7 1500 LV 52 48 +4
Quinnipiac 6/23 - 6/29 3063 RV 57 33 +24

You know what Hugo, the sad reality is that many people are just not even paying attention to what is going on. Even in my business group only a small percentage knew about Cap & Trade, let alone the other nonsense we discuss over here.

shootfighter1 · « **Reply #15 on:** July 08, 2009, 04:33:08 PM »

Thats the part that bothers me the most too 33386. Most people aren't paying attention to the massive socialist type changes this administration is attempting to set forth. Its almost like these people have already decided they like Obama and are letting him carry out his agenda without looking at the actual policies. Who the f-ck besides strong environmentalists want cap & trade/tax?!?!

so conclusion is....his numbers are slipping and they should be as should all politicians...the reps can stand on their soap box rant and rave as they are in the right with obama and his horrible decisions but the fact is they didnt do any better and chances are wont do any better when they get in again.

they all fuck us in the ass folks rep, dem, right, left...

Actually, they DID do A LOT better. Just not near good enough to be acceptable. Lets have some perspective here.

not so much in my eyes, bush did a number of things i didnt like of course it wasnt as bad as it is now but im sure if bush was in the situation barry is in now there would be a whole lot of shit i would be bitching about then as well...

An "F" is an "F" you can take solice in the fact that one got a higher "F" but fact is its still a failing grade and thats unacceptible.

GETTING WORSE BY THE DAY:

MM2K · « **Reply #23 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:11:38 AM »

And now his overall aproval rating is down to 51% - his lowest ever and lower than the percentage that voted for him. 48% now disapprove. If this continues, he's going to have to drop this whole healthcare overhaul and cap and trade conversation - which is a good thing. I think its possible that the voters are trying to tell him - "Stop putting so much on your plate with healthcare and cap and trade and just get the economy back on track" . I think what is really causing people to come around is that we are approaching a 10% unemployment rate and Obama and the Democrats are talking about curbing coal emmissions to stop global warming.

Hedgehog · « **Reply #24 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:14:21 AM »

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? $:-\$
