Well folks I well remember his first day in double digit negative territory on July 30 and now he sets a new record with a drop of over 5 points in one day. Yep he is now negative 14 and probably will go lower tomorrow.

Darn those people at Rasmussen calling 1500 people each day to get their take on things. Read the article and then comment, please. Lets avoid the partisan howling from either side without some reading taking place, for a change.

I must apologize to all for forgetting to insert the link. I screwed up and then howled at people for not reading it. Here it is, late but nevertheless.

No matter how far YOU think Obama will go...his standing in the eyes of most Americans and the world will never be lower than George W's. What was his final approval rating? Probably in the teens or low 20s.

I think Obama will stay the course, albeit redirected somewhat by Congress. The same sorts of things happened to FDR .. (Congress even declared some of FDR's stuff as unconstitutional .. once they started to actually read what he had in mind)

Obama's numbers will fluctuate up and down over the next 3 years, and the overall tone of his Presidency will be marginalized by the American people through court challenges.

Obama is not a policy maker ... no President is ... and the sooner he understands this, the better off both he and us will be. ..

Let me suggest that you read the link so you can see that you aren't talking about the same kind of poll and surely not the same poll. I don't know about Bush because I didn't look at Rasmussen Polls back then but I have the whole 7 months of Obama and he has fallen like a rock the last month.

I thought someone had finally read that thing but not so. When will someone look at the link?

You're too lost to even understand "partisan howling" is the ONLY accomplishment the rightwing has left. To the detriment of their party, and this country.

You dont understand that part, either.

I guess I was keeping the link with me where it was safe. Here it is. Sorry for chewing people for not reading something that wasn't there.
