Obama Approval Falls to 50 Percent in Home State, Collapses in Ohio

In the wake of the Obamacare fiasco, President Obama’s poll numbers are collapsing in two industrial Midwestern states — the quintessential swing state of Ohio and his home state of Illinois.

In Illinois, the Democratic firm Public Policy Polling found Obama’s approval rating falling to just 50–46 positive in a state he carried by 17 points just a year ago. His biggest drops in support came among women voters (only 50 percent positive) and Hispanics (only 51 percent positive). Without his overwhelming support among African-Americans (92 percent), his approval rating would easily be in the low 40s.

In Ohio, a new Quinnipiac poll has Obama’s approval rating at 34 percent positive and 61 percent negative.

Reality for Democrats come 2014.

“Nothing shouts racist like a 94% approval rating. That simply makes a scandalous lie out of every integration scheme the government has ever foisted on America.”

But how about the women?” WTF is wrong with most of them? They seem to buy “being cared for by the government” hook, line and sinker. At least the Blacks have the old skin color “thing” going for them here.

It is so unfair how timing always works against us....

So true, but remember "fairness" is a liberal term, and it means that liberals win and conservatives lose.

Well, I guess Senator Roman Hruska, R-NE, should have said “even idiots need a little representation too.” Instead, he said “the mediocre need a little representation too.”

If only 34% of Ohioans approve of Obama it’s because of his DEMOCRATIC policy on healthcare, which every DEMOCRAT in Congress approved of.

The Democratic party cannot be separated from ObamaCare, it’s part of its DNA, and every day that Obama and Harry Reid adamantly refuse to repeal it while Americans suffer, the Democratic party will continue to suffer.

As for Ohio, its 12.5% African-American population and 3.3% Hispanic population, which are overwhelmingly pro-Obama, together represent almost half of Obama’s 34% Ohio support.

(Illinois voters never had any hope)

Illinois is the same as the rest of the midwest except that there are a few districts in Chicago where the Dems manufacture the votes they need in any election. More votes than residents in a lot of cases.

I wish the elections were tomorrow. We would win everything. A year from now, we hope to at least keep what we have. It is so unfair how timing always works against us....

You are right UNLESS there are more Obama scandals between now and next Fall.

And my suspicion is there will be because this crowd is so corrupt it seems inevitable.

So he’s gonna lose his next election right!?
