-22 now? What?

I can never figure out this number . . . must be word of Moochelle's trip to Spain is being spread. They're supposed to go to Martha's Vineyard soon, too, of course. Most polarizing First Couple ever, at least in my lifetime.

It could be the trip to Spain.  It could also be saying that your base ought to be drug tested because they are so whacked out.

Don't they go to the Gulf Coast this weekend?

I  thought they were going to somewhere in Florida?  Michelle needs to rest after that exhaustive trip to Spain.

I know they are supposed to go somewhere for maybe 10 days... I used to look up on Politico44 for schedule by I could not stand it anymore!

They are going to Nantucket or Martha'a Vineyard, but were supposed to be going to the Gulf Coast first. I don't know where on the GC they were to go....

Naples has a Ritz Carlton (:evillaugh:), and technically it is on the Gulf Coast....as far as I know, the Naples area hasn't had any oil on the beaches either...

Yeah, I just saw your thread on this - they're going to Martha's Vineyard on the 19th of this month after going to Florida this weekend:

I wonder when -22 is going to play golf next and where.

I hope the prick keeps vacationing to the point that more people than already do want to throw his ass out of the WH.

Be interesting to see what the approval index is on the 20th. It's already at -22.

There was some moonbat troll on Moonbattery who insisted this poll "meant nothing."  The sample size is too small for a country the size of America, and it's just plain wrong.  Can't be.   :lmao:

Didn't someone say these polls are like 3 or 4 days old?

If that's so, this was done before his 27 hour long trip to Panama City Beach. I haven't seen any favorable comments about the trip.

They leave Thursday for Martha's Vineyard..... :yawn:

And also keep in mind the poll hasn't had time to react to the comments he made regarding the Ground Zero Mosque.

Even Beltway Bob isn't gonna be able to handle the spin much further.  Sometime in January 2011, watch as Bob takes the 203rd question from the press as to why Obummer is so incompetent, just twists his face into one of utter disgust, pulls off his mike, drops it on the podium and says, "I've had enough of this shit."

Gibbs wants out in 2010, like Gates and Rahmbo.

That's right, opposition to the mosque is running high and Obama said the worst possible thing. That day trip to the "Gulf" isn't going to help with this, but the Martha Vineyard's long trip is going to really hurt his approval - a new record.

Yep--when you consider that the Obamas have, in the just the past month to six weeks alone, gone to Chicago, Maine (twice), the Gulf, and Spain, when the average American is gonna do well to take a trip to the giant yarn ball in Podunk, it's not going to sit well with Joe Six-Pack.

Just to be fair, Zero didn't go with 'shelle to Spain - it was just her and the girls (and the entire entourage that's mandatory, helpful, and just because SHE wants 'em to go).

Definitely spent a few million of the taxpayer's dollars in going on her "mall run."

-19 today, but the bigger news is that the Gallup poll for the first time shows a majority (51%) of Americans disfavoring il Duce Bo.  So there's a lot more going on, than just the Rasmussen poll--but they're all headed the same way.

Quote
Republicans lead by twelve points on the Generic Congressional Ballot.  That’s the largest advantage ever recorded for the GOP.

Quote
Only 18% of homeowners expect the value of their home to go up over the coming year.  Even more stunning, just 41% expect it to increase over the coming five years.

Quote
Sixty-five percent (65%) of voters are angry at the policies of the federal government.

Quote
Forty-eight percent (48%) say it’s too easy to get an abortion in America.

Quote
In Ohio, Republican Rob Portman has opened an eight-point lead in his effort to become the Buckeye State’s next U.S. Senator. With this result, Ohio moves from Toss-Up to Leans Republican in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Balance of Power summary.

Quote
The Rasmussen Reports Gubernatorial Scorecard shows that Republicans are projected to hold the governor's mansion in 27 states after the election. Democrats are projected to hold fifteen and eight remain a Toss-Up.

Quote
Sixty percent (60%) of voters now favor repeal of the recently passed health care law.   Fifty percent (50%) say repeal would be good for the economy.

Quote
Eighty-one percent (81%) of American adults know someone who is out of work and looking for a new job. Only 14% now believe the labor market is stronger than a year ago. One-out-of six American workers (16%) consider themselves to be among the working poor.

All of that is extremely telling, but the bad parts (especially of Obamacare, and the secret parts of the bill nobody knows about that they squeezed in) of Obama's implementations since taking office (everything really) haven't even kicked in yet. 2011 is on it's way, and I suspect that with the coming year, we'll be able to fill multiple pages with the material we get from Rasmussen concerning angry citizens..

Election 2010: Nevada Senate
Nevada Senate: Reid (D) 47%, Angle (R) 47%


Back to even in NV. Angle has been the target of one vicious character assassination job, but she's coming back. I think all the mud they wanted to stick to Angle has stuck and no more is going to; and people are remembering why they want Reid out.

For better or worse, Sarah Palin is jumping into the mix and backing Angle.

I'd say it's for the better, thundley. Hell, I'm a nobody who knows a bit, but not near enough to race for senate, but I'm betting with Palin in my corner, I'd at least get some votes.
