No, he got a bump. Granted, he’s still in negative territory; I just wanna know HOW?

Another 500K lost their jobs this past month. That’s nearly 3 MILLION people to have lost their jobs since he took office! Three Million!

*Scratches Head*

“Gatesgate went away.”

True.

But I’ll bet you a donut that more scandal and crisis are just around the corner! :)

Nah, you’re betting on a sure thing and I value my donuts.

I look for Bambi’s baseline approval index to stay negative, with little spikes even higher here and there as he screws things up (like Gatesgate for example). Which he will. He has a track record now. He’s proven himself incompetent.

Quinnipiac is almost always more pro-leftist than the other polls so if he hits 50% in their polls, it means he’s even lower than that in the real world.

Are the people in Maine behind the overhaul of healthcare?

The MSM has been married to Obama for at least 2 years, if you count the campaign and almost 5 years, if you count Obama's 2004 Democratic Convention speech. Or they've been cultist for that long, where the honeymoon never ends.

The MSM is over. No one believes them. They're untrustworthy hacks at best and corrupt totalitarians at worst. Not a good spectrum to be in.

Good one - Snow job and Collins. I have heard people argue that the GOP needs them because without the moderates, RATS would own Maine. What is the point when they vote with RATS anyway?

While the drop is definitely good news, I fear that it will not be a smooth ride down.

There's an awful lot of people who have invested quite a bit with this presidency and they will fight hard.

It's possible that it will get really ugly.

1960's ugly.

I called it the day he got elected. He’d be a failure and destroy race relations.
