I am sorry to say I do not trust Rasmussen any longer. There is no way Hussein Obama is not much much lower. Every person I talk to totally dislikes him and all the other Commies up there.

These people do not know what a two-bit Marxist thug is. They cannot recognize shams like TARP and the “STIMULUS” that are strictly for political paybacks and buying votes in upcoming bill votes and elections. They cannot recognize a full time liar. Otherwise, this number might be 2-3% !!!

WTH? How could it be so high? He should be -30. Maybe the American public has changed more than we thought? Are there really that many socialist lovers out there? Also our immigration policy is flooding our country with future socialists...look at California.

The floor for the liberal base is about 40%. He is losing the loons.

Its just statistical noise. The day-to-day range seems to be -8 to -13.

Well, that does it then. Rassmussen is wrong and you're right. Thanks for playing.

Ding Ding Ding! You're the winner! Somebody has left the door to the border wide open; check the US Census Bureau and get a whiff of the result!

Yes, it’s been hovering there for a while. I’m hoping it will move down at least 5 points and hover between -13 and -18. He will always have the support of certain groups. No matter what he does because they don’t have a clue.

He also seems to be keeping union support, but the SEIU guy sleeps in the Lincoln bedroom every night so ...

The unions have never understood reality. I blame this on their over-eagerness to affirmative action. I worked for a labor union for years and at first we had intelligent people at the head who were capable of understanding what was going on. That’s all gone now.

If Obama ever gets socialism here as he obviously wants, he will eliminate those pesky labor unions altogether.

It should be, but the reason that his numbers remain this high is surprisingly simple.

Most people just don’t like to admit that they were wrong. At this point, he’s losing people who voted for him, and that’s something that won’t happen all that quickly.

The movement in the generic Congressional polls away from the Democrats tells the real story.

Wait until January. The 10% unemployment with storm clouds on the horizon will start to have a real impact. Conservatives know what it takes for an economic recovery. It takes time for moderates and liberals to let reality set in.

When inflation starts moving up, then we’ll really see some movement on those polls.

I trust Ras. There are cultists out there, believe me. I know some who still bow their knees to him.

The fluctuation these days is wholly due to his support on the hard left.

When he had a -14 rating it was because he had put more troops in Afganistan.

If it's only -9 today it's because the left is excited that Ozero seems to be stiffing the generals or because health care passed in the House.

Watch. When he does something to really anger the left again it will go back to -14.

The Kenyan is still hanging in there - I was hoping for -20 by now.

so what happened?

Short attention spans. Those who forget and start supporting this Marxist right after not supporting him will be the ones asking what happened, when freedom is gone.

I still get into arguments with my friends who voted for BIO ... (the “I” means Insane) - one yelled at me that Beck called Obama a Nazi ... my response was he didn’t then went on to explain what he did say ... then I said that Hillary called Bush Hitler and the Republican party Nazi’s on the floor of the Senate ... nothing but crickets and frogs from the MSM .... d** I hate them ....

Hello All,

I really appreciate the “Dear Reader” tracking threads. A suggestion I have is that when one is posted that you go ahead and add “tracking” to the keywords. Keywords are the default in the search box, so it makes it quick to see if the daily tracking results have been posted.

thanks for your efforts,

Free Atlanta
