It's such a shame this weak and venal narcissist has been elected.  This is not good for the country.  I'll never understand why Democrats thing projecting weakness to the world is desirable.

The libs are about power and cannot admit their ideas, such as they are, are frauds. But in their dim little minds, they think they have the "moral high ground". This, of course, justifies any means to their ends. So they always say the opposite of their intentions.

I forget  where I read it, but a break down of polls show very little drop in support from blacks, Hispanics, and people living below the poverty line.

I think that may be true for some, but I think others still feel pride that a non-white is President of The United States, and I can't fault them for that.

That pride should start to diminish when failure is evident.

Also true, but I think there is a bit of denial, thrown in with a bit of 'wait and see' keeping his numbers at about the same levels in those communities. eventually they will start to slide.

Nobody like to admit that the horse they put all their money on broke his leg only 500 yards into the race.

Its tough to say - Kind of a crapshoot, though I think in the long term it will be damaging to Obama, since most of his approval points are now coming from his base, and they no-likey what they heard last night.

Thought I'd add this here: Compare link


Gallup has Obama on 47% approval and CNN has Sarah Palin on 46% approval.  Who's the uniter and who's the divider? :-)

The White House lashed out at the Gallup Poll on Tuesday after the survey's daily tracking numbers showed President Obama's approval rating dropping to a new low of 47 percent.

Asked for a response to Monday's tracking poll, which placed Obama's approval numbers among the lowest of any recent president in December of his first year in office, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs mocked the reliability of the widely respected polling firm.

"I tell you, if I was a heart patient and Gallup was my EKG, I'd visit my doctor," Gibbs said. "If you look back, I think five days ago, there was an 11-point spread, now there's a 1-point spread. I mean, I'm sure a 6-year-old with a crayon could do something not unlike that. I don't put a lot of stake in, never have, in the EKG that is the daily Gallup trend."

He added: "I don't pay a lot of attention to the meaninglessness of it."

Gallup's tracking poll showed an uptick in Obama's numbers last week following his speech outlining a new strategy for the war in Afghanistan. But in Monday's polling release, Gallup's Jeffrey M. Jones wrote: "Any slight bump in support Obama received coincident with his new Afghanistan policy proved to be very short-lived, as his approval rating returned to below the majority level by the weekend and slipped further to 47 percent  in Dec. 4-6 polling."

He'll never fall below 25%.....the blacks, muslims, communists, moonbats and fellow Kenyans will see to that.

December 9, 2009 - Obama Approval Falls To New Low, Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds; U.S. Voters Oppose Health Care Plan By Wide Margin

Word format

American voters give President Barack Obama a split 46 - 44 percent job approval, his lowest ever, and both the health care reform package that he wants Congress to pass and his personal rating on handling health care now win support from less than four in 10 Americans, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. ...

A new Marist Poll out today says registered voters nationally are divided about President Barack Obama’s job approval rating — 46 percent approve of his job performance while 44 percnet disapprove. One in 10 voters is unsure.

This is the first time the president has lost majority support on this question since taking office, the poll says. When Marist last asked this question in October, 53 percent of voters gave the president high marks. ...

...Perhaps the greatest measure of Obama's declining support is that just 50% of voters now say they prefer having him as President to George W. Bush, with 44% saying they'd rather have his predecessor....
