Dems, take note.
Obama is threatening not to support their campaigns if they don't vote to ram this bill down everyone's throat. Being shunned by Obama will be a blessing for their campaigns.
The more Obama pushes the bill, the more unpopular he becomes and what the professor hasn't posted is that the incumbent Democrats also lose points in their regional polls.
CALL them, email them, fax them. Because at the end of the day, Obama hasn't the power to re-elect them and neither he nor Nancy have any obligation (nor will they maybe have the power) to give them their promised bribe. That's the nature of a den of thieves. It's time we remind them that their personal future is guaranteed only to the extent that they protect our liberty.
I don't believe this poll for a second!
(the must be a poll taken in Obama's own office - his approval is half that)
Rasmussen Reports notes that Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 23% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-three percent (43%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -20...

What does the Fox News Poll show, I only trust Fox News.
I agree with an earlier poster. At this point, I don't know a single person who thinks well of Obama or who would vote for him again. Where are these people who still approve of him?
In most districts I imagine having Obama campaign for you would be like getting an endorsement from [insert the name of your least favorite hollywood personality]. It would mean name recognition, but not the kind anyone would want.
isn't it interesting that the other polls are now converging with rassmussen, the poll all of DC claimed was tainted and was understating obama's popularity. why, it's almost as if rassmussen were right all along... perhaps that's why they were the most accurate poll in the last election.
this situation is hardly rocket science. attempting to strong arm through a deeply unpopular bill will make you unpopular.
am i the only one who is utterly dumbfounded that the DC dems would call a filibuster anti democratic and then try to ram through a bill americans oppose nearly 2:1 at the same time?
I'm not particularly dumbfounded by the dummies in congress, Morganovich.
As for nobody approving of Obama anymore...I am shocked by the people who now deeply dislike him because these were the same people who are very far left and were building shrines to him in their living rooms only 8 months ago.
When you're so radical you're losing the support of the radicals in your party, you have to wonder if you have anyone's support at all - outside of the AFL-CIO.
