According to the latest (9/28) Rasmussen Poll, Barack Hussein Obama now enjoys a 57% approval rating among American voters. What does this mean? It means that those Friday night debates didn't change a thing. It means that no matter how poorly Barack Obama acquitted himself that night it makes no difference. That revealing "America is the greatest nation in the world, BUT..." statement doesn't matter. That embarrassing soldier's bracelet gaff doesn't matter. His recently exposed contemptuous betrayal of our courageous military in Iraq by his behind-the-scenes attempts to manipulate our troop withdrawals for his own selfish political agenda doesn't matter. Rezko doesn't matter. His undeniable twenty year relationship with Reverend "Goddamn America" Wright doesn't matter. His angry militant anti-white America wife's outrageous admission that for the first time in her lifetime she is "finally proud to be an American" doesn't matter. His suspicious ties to Islamists and Muslims don't matter.
Don't you see? None of it matters. He is as impervious to stain as OJ Simpson was impervious to justice.
There are no present or future revelations, no matter how powerful, no matter how damning, that will derail this speeding train. 57% of America approves. 57% of America has spoken, and they have said that nothing, absolutely nothing that we have uncovered, or may uncover in the future, makes a damn bit of difference to them. 57% of America will not be dissuaded from their choice. 57% of America approves. How does this make you feel? How does this make me feel? Outraged? Impotent? Resigned to failure and defeat?
I once had a friend who was determined to commit suicide. We loved this friend and we tried everything we could think of to dissuade them. But every argument we made fell on deaf ears. They were just determined. And nothing we could say, or nothing that we could think of saying, would make the slightest difference. And in the end, despite all of our well-intentioned efforts, despite all of our entreaties and all of those well-reasoned arguments, we lost the battle and we lost our friend. That's how I feel.
I really don’t care if you “buy it” or not, it doesn’t change those figures.
And don’t talk to me about my tone. Go to my blog http://radarsite.blogspot.com/ and check it out before you talk about my tone. No one has fought harder against Obama than myself. I can’t even remember how many articles I have written trying to expose this menace to our democratic nation. But to 57% of America none of this makes a damn bit of difference. Get off you high horse and try to understand what my message is here. No one on this site would be any happier to be wrong about all this than myself. But that does not change the basic argument of this posting.

Be a defeatest and promotoe liberal dribble.
Pick yourself up off the floor and grow a set instead of throwing in the towel. Your posting stinks.
Well good for you. Sounds like a chic with serious mental problems that would probably wind up stabbing you to death after saying a talking dog told her to do it.
But you're missing one key point. To not approve of Obama is racist. Some portion of those 57% lie to pollsters so that they won't be seen as racist. Let's see what really happens in the privacy of a voting booth.
Has the MSM *ever* admitted a Republican won any debate? I can’t think of a single circumstance. I suspect many writers, propagandists, they are certainly cannot be called journalists, have already written their boilerplate articles on the Palin / Biden debate.
I disagree-they do matter.
Debates are where the rubber meets the road.
McCain was right to scoff at Barry’s royal pronouncement that
he would sit down with Iran without pre-conditions.
Iran is complicit in the death of US soldiers in Iraq.
Their Islamic Revolutionary Guard Jersualem force is aiding and abetting militias that are employing made-in-Iran IEDs, rockets, munitions etc..
So Iran is our enemy. Like it or not.
In that light-its criminal to sit down with these maggots
while they are getting away with killing our boys.
CRIMINAL.
It shows that while Obama has a 57% approval rating, McCain’s is 55%. What is more depressing is that the Rassmussen poll shows Obama with 50% of the American voters and McCain with 44%.
Dismal.
Democrats are being set up for a huge disappointment come election day. The Republican take over of 1994 is going be like a walk in the park compared to the despair McCain/Palin are getting ready to serve the leftist kooks.
Its truly unbelievable that 57% of America approves of this clown.
Even if you assume he draws all the “minority” Votes (unlikely) that only amounts to about 30% of the voting population.
Thank you Williams for understanding why I posted this.
Where was it at this point in the last election cycle?
If that Tokyo Rose remark is meant for me, you are a complete idiot. How hard have YOU tried to prevent an Obama victory? How many articles have you written trying every way that you can think of to destroy this man? You don’t even bother to check me out before you attack my credentials.
Read this article of mine and then dare to call me a defeatist, a Tokyo Rose, a liberal troll. What kind of idiots hang out here?
If you don’t like that message of mine then do something about it! Do something to try to change the minds of those stupid 57%.
All I need I need to know about you is what you wrote “RIGHT HERE.
You’re right. I thought about that before I posted this. Obama has 57% approval and McCain has 55% approval. But that still doesn’t address the issue of this posting, which is this — After all of the stunning revelations we have had about Obama’s lack of character, his shady dealings, his disreputable friends and his dubious background he still holds a 57% approval rating! How can this be? What has happened to our country?
I can’t believe the numbskulls who are attacking me here about this article. Did they even bother to read it?
Congratulations! You’re one of the numbskulls I was referring to.

I’m feeling that way at times.
I really don’t care if you “buy it” or not, it doesn’t change those figures.

I see you have worked hard. God bless you.
So have I- every day. I felt let down after the debates.
If John McCain doesn’t take the gloves off, we’re done.
I’m trying to fight it, but I’m beginnging to feel a little as you do.
.
The article isn’t about 57$ support, it’s for 57% approval.. huge difference. And, I suspect people see a ‘nice young man’ who has nil experience .. so they ‘like’ or ‘approve of’ him .. doesn’t mean they’re going to VOTE for him.
