Back to double digits. I wonder when Ft Hood and the criminal behavior of Congress will kick in.

It probably already has.

and the criminal behavior of Congress will kick in.

If you're referring to Pelosi Care, when it hits people in the pocket and they realize they have nothing or maybe even less to show for it. Much like the stimulus.

Just wait until a few days from now when the House vote from last night gets factored into the polls.

Obama’s ratings really haven’t moved much since early August.

Agreed. It bounces around the same margin and has for a long time. There won’t be much significant movement until the depression and national bankruptcy is absolutely undeniable.

I was polled by Rasmussen a couple of days ago. There were some interesting focus questions about the Fall of the Berlin Wall anniversary.

Rasmussen polls using RoboCall, which is why he tends to get more accurate results.

The others use human interviewers, and people shape their answers to cater to what they think the interviewer wants to hear.

Rasmussen Poll is hands down most accurate in the industry today.

I wouldn’t be surprised the number goes back up once Zombie-Americans hear about last night’s “victory.” This assumes the -10 includes two diametrically opposed kinds of dissatisfaction, liberal impatience and conservative anger.

Unemployment hit double digits on Friday and the House passed Obamacare on Saturday. Pretty significant events. Americans are hurting badly.

I will lay odds that once those two issues sink in and become a reality for people in the coming weeks, Obama's poll ratings will get lower.

Pelosi and Obama and Reid do not care what anyone thinks about their programs. Shove the garbage through for their sacred Power and ruin the country. So what if it destroys jobs! So what if we do not what it! Get ready because they have more dirty tricks up their sleeves!

The real poll improved in his direction, 49-50.

It may bve where it is going to be for the duration. I figure there are 30% hard core obama supporters who will never admit they were wrong no matter the evidence and/or who want something from the government, 40% who are smart enough to see him, and 30% who are oblivious.

Unfortunately it is the back and forth of the oblivious that determines elections.

They don't read the bills. Stimulus. Cap & Trade. PelosiCare. This is government run amok.

I think we have to put pressure on our media, particularly Rush and Fox news, to force Obama to release his personal records. The courts are stalling on the eligibility issue and this has been in the courts since before the election.

The shooter at Ft Hood had ties to Al Quaida and was on an advisory board to the Obama transition team. Think about that.

Will it even matter if it hits absolute 0?

I am sure it will be going down, but it may be another month or so. I am also sure it will never go back up above 58 on the Rasmussen Poll, maybe on the bogus New York Times-CBS polls.

Yep. The cost kicks in immediately if the Senate passes this abomination. People WILL notice. The DUmmies have just figured this out, and they're pi$$ed. They don't want to pay. They thought everyone else would pay for them. Now, they don't have a choice at all. They MUST spend their own money on health care. They're not happy.
How's that hope and change working out for them now?

-10? Why is this still so high? Wake up, America!

I can't help but think this number will go much lower when Obomas Welfare Death Care tax kick in.

_______________________________

Me either. There are still a number of Americans who don’t read or watch the news because “it’s too depressing”. Those same Americans are expecting national health care to provide an abundance of the same quality of care we get now at dollar store prices, and voted for Obama to get it.

Until the reality of that being an impossibility for 300+ million people from a nation who is broke is truly understood, Obama will float.

Exactly. Where will the trillions of dollars come from? I don't get it.

More bad news....This clearly indicates that oscumbo continues to be positioned to get whatever he wants..

Need to stop ranting about this indicator until it gets to a really significant negative value or, at least, makes a significant change deeper in the negative direction....

I wonder where Rasmussen gets his numbers. All other polls show 0bama is still very popular with 55-60% support (which drives me crazY)

A Shout Out for minus 10!
Looking forward to minus 20, which should be the day after this putz ruins the Fort Hood memorial ceremony.

Thanks for the shout out. ;)

I am following the eligibility lawsuits by Berg, Apuzzo, Taitz, Kreep, Donofrio and others hoping to get this usurper removed before the 2010 elections to expose the evil of the DNC and Obama axis.

I thought of you when I heard about the courageous female police officer who faced the jihadist major and pumped at least 2 of the four rounds into his chest before falling herself with wounds in both legs and an an arm. Her partner fortunately was able to finish the turd off and kick the weapon away and cuff him. These are the people who should be recognized and hailed as heroes.

Hasan has links to the 9/11 terrorists (according to British Press) and was on an advisory panel to the Obama administration transition team. Need I say more?

We’ve both been wise to the usurper’s game for a long time haven’t we...Last week I sent to The White Hut, a copy of the news story from when Zero was running for senate in IL. It was a rare story that was not scrubbed from the net. Title was like this “Kenyan-born Obama to be Illinois Senator”. It can’t be much clearer than that. No one corrected the newspaper when that was published years ago. No doubt you saw that story too.

I so admire the woman who took Hasan out. She reminds me of the lady in Colorado Springs who took out a lunatic who was shooting up a church. These skilled and brave women are an inspiration.

I read about all the warning signs with Hasan. Good grief it’s like he was wearing a neon jihad sign. For years he was an obvious danger.

I read on FR that 15,000 other muslims are within the US armed forces. Granted most of them might be sane. But surely a good number are islamic fanatics capable of the same atrocities as Hasan.
