Obama 's poll numbers are amazing !
Fox News ^ | March 7, 214 | Wayne Allyn Root

Posted on 03/09/2014 6:52:43 AM PDT by Innovative

Have you seen Obama’s poll numbers? They are among the lowest in history. As of today, Obama’s approval rating is at 38%. That’s just barely above Richard Nixon.

That means that among the rest of America, outside of loyal, lifelong, Kool-Aid drinking Democrats, Obama's ratings are nil.

Remember that about 47% of Americans get entitlement checks from government. Obama is PAYING for their support and he still only has 38% approval. You know you're unpopular when even bribes don't work anymore!

He has virtually zero support among the 53% who aren't getting a check from government. You can't find another instance of that in the history of American politics.

We are in definite “wag the dog” territory.

Monica missiles may emerge soon and Russia, Syria, North Korea, or some other stupid conflict may be just around the corner.

George W Bush did hit 25% at low point — at around the 2008 election time, when the Dems hammered him — , but finished higher, at 34%.

“And yet, he won re-election. The media carried him through to last year. That was the goal. Keep a liberal Dem in office so a Republican president could not undermine Obamacare and all the other Socialist programs he put in place. It doesn’t matter if his popularity is low now. They will try to push it up so the elections aren’t a disaster for the Dems but even if they are, Obama is still in office and can veto anything a Republican Congress does.”

Unfortunately, you are 100% correct!

One glance would tell a rational experienced person that he would be and is incompetent. His incompetence will be expressed in poor performance. The latter, of course, being reflected in the polls. People are hurting all over the nation.

P.S. Perhaps it is the diet of $ 200/pound taxpayer purchased Ragu beef?

True - but CNN, NBC, ABC, and MSNBC still think Obama's the loved 'ONE' we've all been waiting for.... LOL, the nets are such fools.

I don’t believe he “won” re-election.

I’m fairly certain he stole it.

Obama's approval among “the Heartland of America” (non-partisan middle class Americans) is lower than Nixon.
Lower than George W. Bush.
Lower than Lyndon Johnson at the height of the Vietnam war.
Lower than Jimmy Carter at the height of the Iranian hostage crisis, with the added burden of an economy in misery and malaise.

Yet he wields more power that all of them combined..................

Poll, Shmoll.

This guy has the base where it counts.

Big states with big electoral votes: Urban African-Americans 99%, LGBT, 100%, White Women, 65%, Young Voters 80%, Latinos legal and illegal, 75%, Jews 75%, Catholics 55% ... just in case, they have a fraud machine that works pretty darn well. Take Baltinmore, where there the same voters have been showing up at the polls since 1789.... ditto Philly ... There were hundreds of entire, very high turnout precincts in which Romney, for example, did not receive a single vote. That's right, not 1.

Polls? How you gonna beat this set of numbers? White men over 50 ranching in Idaho?

“I don’t believe he “won” re-election.

Same here.

I don’t believe he was supposed to be reelected until Benghazi made it necessary so they could do a cover up.

There are too many things Zippo did in his first term that were designed to be failures and problems for whoever was the president in 2013.

Orchestrate a failed republican presidency and Hillary would be a walk-in come 2016.

They might complain. They might even say conservatives were, in this one instance, right. But they can not and will not generalize this situation to the left being essentially wrong. So, they’ll all vote for Hillary, or even Satan. They vote on color, “sexiness”, good hair, teeth and a winning smile. Most of all, they vote on liberalism. But, they do not judge content of character, or know enough about economics to understand redistribution is theft.

So, what constructive thing can you do about it?

maybe they're complaining that the bribes aren't big enough (he's not liberal enough for them)

I hope that my retirement check is not included in this grouping.
