Polls move, they’re inaccurate at best.
I’m guessing BHO is probably at a reliably -15. Even here in the blue part of Ohio, I’m hearing people more and more unhappy with BHO.
However, starting in late 2011, the full court press from the State Controlled Media will begin. The SCM will pull out all the stops to get their boy re-elected, and as we’ve seen, the sheeple are easily swayed.
Polls on weekends sample more Dems because they’re home, IIRC. Maybe these jumps reflect who works and who doesn’t, more than anything else.
“This is so discouraging. I know its a poll and numbers ebb and flow. But I cannot believe he has the support of 48% of the people. Its insane. We very well might be seeing the end of this country.”
I have been echoing this for months.
The USA, now USSA, has been dumbed down to moron level, and will soon die.
If this were 25 years ago, Obambie would not even be at the “who is he?” level.
Today, he is the Marxist, illegal immigrant POTUS.
America has GONE a long way, baby...straight down the drain.
If you think it is bad now, just wait till he gives amnesty
to 30 million wetbacks.

Thanks for that perspective. I was totally unaware of the changes in polling technique.
the 20B from BP
I rarely watch TV outside of certain interests but last night came across Jay Leno and a man-on-the street Q & A segment regarding American History. Here are the replies from about a half-dozen people:
Leno: Where is the Liberty Bell?
Female: Pittsburgh?
Leno: What Harbor is famous for the Tea Party?
Female: Pearl
Leno: Where was the Declaration of Independence signed?
Male: On the bottom line.
Leno: Who married George Washington?
Female: Mary or Margaret?
Leno: (Bewildered) No, it was Martha. How about Spencer Pratt? (I have no idea who that is).
Same Female as Above: (Giggling) Heidi Montag, of course. (again, I have no idea who that is).
Leno: What was a name given to the opposing soldiers in the Revolutionary War? They wore red coats.
Male (currently studying AMERICAN HISTORY): Yankees?
Leno: What year is often associated with the American Revolution?
Same Male as Above: 1869
Leno: What is the name of the National Anthem?
Female: Oh, the Seventh Inning Stretch song?
YET THIS IS MY FAVORITE:
Leno: Who lost the Revolutionary War?
Female: I want to say some white people.
I have Never been asked a Poll question,Who are these people that make up the cross section they use for this?
Apparently 48% are "useful idiots" the 0bamao regime can manipulate.
True.
A lot of the changes in the postive and negatives generated by these polls come from the shifting views of him by his leftist adherents.
There is a rock hard core of anti-Obama moderates and conservatives which generates the 13-16% overage of people who STRONGLY disapprove of this loon. There is a rock solid core of individuals who will ALWAYS support him - about 28% composed mainly of ethnic backers.
And, what accounts fo rmost of the fluctuations, a changeable group of far-left radicals which shift from opposing to backing him, depending on how insanely leftist he is perceived by them at the moment.
These are the far leftists who drove his numbers down when he was seeming to do nothing about the spill. These swings are all about the left.
Ignore the day to day variation (noise), and pay attention to the trend. Strong disapproval has been fairly stably above 40% since mid February. Also, keep in mind that the 3-day moving average still includes Fathers Day weekend in the summer, when many members of the middle class may have been away from their land line phones.
Yes, in the the left's eyes.
Don't you remember all the gay/lesbian stuff he said a couple days ago? And the BP fund he forced? The reasons the numbers were down is because the left was on the outs with him. He's wooing them back.
What's sad is Americans seem to embody the spousal abuse victim who gets momentarily angry at the abuser, but repeatedly gets lulled into thinking, "it's really my fault. He really isn't so bad."
Has The Obama done anything to IMPROVE his poll numbers?
Yes, in the the left’s eyes.
Don’t you remember all the gay/lesbian stuff he said a couple days ago? And the BP fund he forced? The reasons the numbers were down is because the left was on the outs with him. He’s wooing them back.
Not to mention his attempts on a couple fronts to further damage Arizona: a) His refusal to re-take the occupied zone near the border; and b) The federal lawsuit against the state.
These actions geared toward destroying America give pleasure and succor to the Left.
That 48% is probably made up of those who do not pay any Federal tax.
What is most disturbing about the poll is that the total disapprove has moved downward from 58% (which was getting close to reasonable) to 51%....how in the WORLD can only 51% disapprove of this bumbling moron?
