-13 today. As predicted, Lord Zero is getting a bump from the disaster in Haiti.

The Rassmussen site has been down all morning.  I was hoping to see a new poll for Brown v. Coakley.

everybody is -- which probably why its down :) - many figure that if Brown is up 5 or better going in, that the race is over.

Last I heard, Brown up by six% points among likely voters.

I wouldn't get too upset over it.  It's not his strong approvals increasing as much as it is his strong disapprovals dropping a bit.  This is primarily due to his Haiti response, which, I have to admit, is appropriate given the situation.

However, when Haiti falls off the news cycle and we're back to domestic issues, particularly if Coakley wins today and Obamacare is shoved down our throats, that -11 will become -20 or higher very quickly.

Hi,

I just read on the Fox web site that we may end up with a couple hundred thousand Haitians illegally coming here.  When that happens let's see what it does to his ratings.

-12 the day after the Massachusetts earthquake. If he continues to talk about ramming HCR through, I think it will drop quickly.

And faster still if TSHTF in Haiti, if our troops are put in harms way by a bunch of looters and thugs.

love to know the general orders  from obama about the ROE with the Citizens .  The trooops who are there could have restored order and distributed water/food throughout if there was a free hand given. When it leaks out that they were restrained, the # will drop more.

I don't think it will happen. His SOTU speech is set for the 27th, and he will get a bump from that, I'm sure.

Let's hire Tonya Harding's guys to take TOTUS out.  He'll be at -50 before the end of the speech!

How many people even remember who Tonya Harding is and what her goon did? This one went down about the same time that Joey Buttafuoco had his time in the sun (pre-porn flicks, of course), IIRC.

She had her friend Jeff Gillooly (sp?) kneecap Nancy Kerigan. Both were figure skaters, but I think Tonya did a porn video that got leaked.

Jeffie spent time in prison and Tonya, well, Tonya just sorta fell off the map. I'd bet the porn video didn't do too well.  :lmao:

She's been on a couple of reality shows, and a couple of years ago she was on one of those wrestling shows as a wrestler. I remember seeing the ads for them.....poor girl hasn't aged very well....as my momma would have said....she looked rode hard and put up wet....

Yes...you are right, and I am wrong....it was something in a ring where they hit each other.

I have enough of a problem understanding why men do it.....I cannot understand women doing it at all.

I don't understand girls that want to play football either.

I am such a girl....er, woman.  :thatsright:
