Daily Presidential Tracking Poll (-19 Lowest in 9 months)

Posted on 06/16/2013 7:16:35 AM PDT by BulletBobCo

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows that 47% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Obama's job performance. Fifty-two percent (52%) now disapprove.

Today’s figures include 22% who Strongly Approve of the way Obama is performing as president and 41% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -19 (see trends).

That’s the lowest Approval Index rating for the president in nine months.

I don’t believe these polls anymore. I thought that Americans had more sense before the election, but now I know better.

He would still win in a landslide.

After the debacle in November, I’ve become convinced many of Obama’s detractors are pissed at him for not going far enough.

So what do we do with the 22% that strongly approve of Zero?

Yup. We are no longer the majority in America. We, conservatives, are still probably the largest group. However, the coalition arrayed against us will just about forgive Obama for anything.

“He would still win in a landslide.”

I have no doubt. The electorate is currently D+6.. Very likely it’ll be D+8 in 2016.

Here they go again - push brainwashing us while the Democrats are figuring out how to lie, cheat and steal enough votes in enough Congressional Districts to win the House. I don’t even read those polls anymore.

And really, what difference does it make? I’m not even being sarcastic. President Obama isn’t running for reelection again. Short of impeachment, he’s the president.

What does amaze me is the 47% who continue to support the man. I shouldn’t be amazed, especially when vast numbers of Americans never hear a negative word about Obama. The media, for example, is doing everything possible to protect Dear Leader.

As Geraldo Rivera said a few days ago, the New York Times is upset with Obama because he isn't a true liberal.

Americans have become dependent and they are voting for the person who given them more freebies. Romney makes headlines for his “binders” comment or for a dopey story about a dog yet Obama and Benghazi are page 43 material according to these dolts.

As long as the markets will swallow an unlimited amount of Baraqqi/Bernanke/Lew minibucks to fund the deficit and pay entitlements, the Dems are in good shape.

I generally don't approve of abortion, but if parents do their best and their kids still turn out in that 22% . . .

Obama could walk outside the front gate of The White House, knife a tourist in broad daylight, and his base of 23% (and the MSM) would simply say Obama doesn’t know anything about it...

Intensity is always interesting:

79% of those who disapprove of Obama strongly disapprove.
54% of those who approve of Obama strongly approve.

I hope we'll be able to exploit that difference in 2014, although it failed us in 2012.

I wonder if that is the same 47% that pay no income taxes?
