Obama Continues Slide – Down 33 Points Since January

The radical in the White House continued his slide in October.
(Rasmussen)
His approval has slid 33 points since January.
Rasmussen reported that his daily approval rating is at -13:
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 27% of the nation’s voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty percent (40%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -13.
…Overall, 46% of voters say they at least somewhat approve of the President’s performance. Fifty-two percent (52%) disapprove. It’s sometimes easy to get caught up in the day-to-day fluctuations of the tracking poll and miss the longer-term trend. Rasmussen Reports also compiles the data on a month-by-month basis which shows that the President’s ratings slipped a bit in October after stabilizing in September.

And his Approval Index has been below 50% on Rasmussen for 3 straight month. Covered this on Saturday…

The interesting point is that Obama and the Dems seem to be getting NO CREDIT at all for the stock market almost doubling in value since he took the WH.
This is because people realize that it happened DESPITE him rather than because of him. Most Americans also realize that much of the profit being shown out there is based upon a fake infusion of borrowed money and not real productivity.
One reason the stock market has rallied so much is that big money players are making a fortune shorting the dollar and investing in risky assets like stocks. In other words, another speculative bubble just waiting to implode when the dollar stabilizes.
I think the #1 thing that is hurting Obama at this point is that he really seems he has no idea what he is doing, which should surprise no one as he has no experience at leadership ever.

Not surprising at all. This has happened to every President who won by a landslide since 1965.

I didn’t realize that 53% of the vote constituted a landslide. Thank you for informing me about Democratic Party arithmetic.

Personally, this poll seems racist to me.

The 46% that somewhat approve, voted for this communist, and have just gone about their merry way, oblivious to the damage they’ve done.

The Rasmussen Poll is racist. Rasmussen is an angry white male. How could the Won not be loved by all! Those who do not worship the Won are all racists. Racism…racism … that’s the reason racism 0′s poll popularity is down. If we progressives repeat racism often enough everyone will believe opposition to 0 is racism. O’s mentors Uncle Joe, Adolph, and Il Duce, and Maoz were all loved by their subjects and Obozo is even more popular.

I suspect that the numbers shown by the Corruptocrat internal polls are much worse then that judging by the actions of the Obamao regime and Nazi Nancy/Dirty Harry run legislative branch trying to ram through Obamacare and the rest of their agenda at warp speed.
They know they have run out of time. I also suspect that they are beginning to realize that they are fighting for their very lives, too. That if they do not succeed that they very well might be looking at having everything they own confiscated and spending time in prison instead of their mansions writing their “memoirs”. And that would be the “best case” scenario for them.

Perhaps. But what about the ones who barely squeeked by with a plurality of 1.7%?
You know. Like obama did.

Obama is tanking.

The Left lives and dies by polling results.

Wow, Obama has gone downhill in a hurry. That’s a substantial plummet that hasn’t hit bottom yet.
Just wait til he signs off on the trillion dollar boondoggle known as healthcare, unemployment sits over 10 percent, the economy quits growing in the private sector, the majority of growth is government sector jobs, and deficits are still sitting in the trillions. His 7 percent support will be exclusively relegated to kostards.

Wait until Christmas comes and people can’t dig deep enough in their pockets to give their kids a decent Christmas.
They better not have any polls around that time.
