This is a milestone, inasmuch as so long as he is perceived to be a "popular" president, congress is loathe to stand against him, regardless of party........now that he is below the magic 50%, you can expect to see congress start to more strongly oppose his policies........right now, the "blue dog" democrat coalition is saying that the messiah's national health care bill is DOA, and would not pass if forced to a vote......

Wait until these congressmen get home, and get an earful from their districts during the August break.......sounds to me like the tide might be starting to turn......

I want this jug-eared clown to be rendered impotent for the rest of his term.......

Still only carrying a 49% overall approval rating.   :cheersmate:

I remember how the DUmmies kept calling us the "29%ers" or something because of Bush's popularity. At the time, he was still in the 50% range, but they were using the 29% strongly favorable rating to say that "only 29% still support the (insert typical DUmmie Bush insult here), that means that 71% percent have seen the truth about that (insert another typical DUmmie Bush insult here)". Well, guess what, DUmmies. You're the 29%ers now. Heheheh

I can't for the life of me see why 'O' is pushing so hard for 'Health Care Reform'.  It is painfully obvious WE DON'T WANT it.  Every time it gets stalled people applaud and the market goes up.  Every time 'O' pushes for it the market takes a dump and you get more people calling their reps telling them to just say no.

He wants the power such a law would give him, and he is a narcisist to the point of being incapable of ceeding such a defeat.

I wonder if his little comment about "the stupid cop" had any effect on this.

Probably not (well, not yet anyway). I think all this is the health care backlash.

12% of the population is black, at least 12% is batshit crazy......so I'd say he's just about hit bottom.

Yeah, I heard a few days ago that his popularity rating among blacks was 97% favorable. Now THAT'S identity politics on steroids.

Really good advice for Barack Hussein Obama would be to stay out of the news for a week or so. That race-baiting he did in the staged press conference last week certainly didn't help these numbers. -11, and it will get worse and worse . . .

B-HO is at -10 today.  He'll probably go on vacation soon so his poll numbers will recover slightly.

Rasmussen

edit:  They now show him at his all time low.... -12.

He is such a narcissist that he thinks the more we see of hos face and the more emprty, but important sounding, rhetoric we hear, the more he will be liked.

Fact is that the sound  of his voice now irritates me. So he won't stop, and the irritation with his noise will grow.

When this thread was first started, he was at +17. I wonder how long it will be before it reaches the negative. Looking at the current trend, I'd say around Labor Day, maybe Halloween.

My gut tells me he is going to stabilize around -10 and stay there for a while. So, HFB's -17 rating may be about on the mark.

I think -10 is going to be his high mark for awhile, but think he'll reach over -20 by years end.

Rasmussen is the most credible of the lot -- when you are tracking long term it is best to stick with one polling outlet.
