Gallup Poll: Obama’s Approval Rating Among Business Owners A Scant 35%
Image
Even better: The poll was conducted before he made his “you didn’t build that” comment.

Quote:
Business owners resoundingly oppose President Barack Obama’s policies, with nearly 60 percent disapproving of his job performance, according to a Gallup Poll released Thursday.

Fifty-nine percent of business owners said they disapprove of Obama’s job performance, compared with 35 percent who said they approve.

Their approval of the president has fallen from 41 percent in the first quarter to 35 percent in the second quarter of 2012, a drop of 6 points.

This puts business owners with the second-lowest approval in terms of occupational groups measured by Gallup.

The group with the lowest approval was farming, fishing or forestry workers, who disapproved of the president, 57 percent to 34 percent.

Heartache: Hollywood Moonbat Matt Damon "Disappointed" In Barack Obama
Image
Like every other Dem sheeple, he will still vote for him.

Quote:
Matt Damon has said there's a sense of public fury over banking scandals that is being ignored by the US election.

Damon said the US public is angry over financial inequality and that neither Democrats nor Republicans are addressing that in their presidential campaigns.

The 41-year-old actor made his comments at Comic-Con in San Diego, where he was promoting the sci-fi thriller Elysium, about a future in which the ultra-rich escape a dying Earth to live in a poverty-free, illness-free orbiting habitat. The film is set for release next March.

Damon said he expects US President Obama to be elected to a second term in November but isn't as staunch a supporter as he once was.

"I'd be shocked if (Mitt) Romney won. You know, I think Obama is the clear choice. But I've said before I'm really disappointed in him, and I am, particularly because of the banking stuff. He so misread that," Damon said.

Black Pastors: Obama Does Not Have The Black Vote "In The Bag"
Image
It is NOT like they'd vote for Romney, they just won't show up for Barry in November, and November is coming.

98 days...

Quote:
Rev. William Owens, head of the Coalition of African American Pastors, said that President Obama’s support for gay marriage may cost him the election due by weakening his support among black voters.

“He has not done a smart thing and it might cost him the election,” Owens said during a press conference today at the National Press Club today. “There are more people that want marriage to be right than there are homosexuals.”

Owens, who said he supported Obama in 2008, announced that CAAP is launching a “Mandate for Marriage” campaign around the country to urge black voters to withhold their support from Obama unless he retracts his support for gay marriage.


Question: What do you think would happen if a conservative white man said the exact same thing?

Points to ponder.

Yes?

New poll boosts Obama in battleground states
August 1, 2012,
Strong support among women and Latinos and doubts about Mitt Romney’s business background have boosted President Obama into a lead in two swing states, according to a poll released Wednesday.

Obama leads Romney among likely voters 51%-45% in Florida and 50%-44% in Ohio, according to the poll by Quinnipiac University, the New York Times and CBS News. The poll also showed Obama with a 53%-42% lead among likely voters in Pennsylvania, a state that some Republicans have touted as a possible swing location. Both campaigns have stopped advertising in Pennsylvania, indicating that neither feels it currently makes the battleground list.

By margins of 58%-37% in Florida, 60%-37% in Ohio and 62%-34% in Pennsylvania, likely voters said they favored Obama’s plan to raise taxes on earnings above $250,000 a year. And asked whether Romney has “the right kind of business experience to get the economy creating jobs again or is Romney’s kind of business experience too focused on making profits” – the argument at the center of the Obama campaign’s advertising barrage against Romney – likely voters in all three states took the president’s side of the case.
In Ohio, likely voters by 50%-41% said Romney’s experience was “too focused on making profits.” In Florida, the divide was closer, 48%-42%, while in Pennsylvania, they split 51%-42%.

Gallup: Obama Approval Below
Fifty In All Major Swing States

Big Government, by John Nolte


Today, Gallup released new job approvals polls taken in all fifty states with the headline: "Thirteen States and D.C. Give Obama Majority Approval." You can also read that as "Obama Below Majority Approval In 37 States". The problem for Obama is that his approval numbers are only above 50% in states we already know he's going to win in November. But in the swing states he must take in order to win the opportunity to finish the job of destroying our country, the President is well below 50. Iowa, Florida, Virginia, Pennsylvania -- 46%.

Propaganda poll shows Obama ahead
American Thinker, by Richard Baehr


A worthless new Quinnipiac poll gives Obama a big edge in Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.

The survey shows Obama up 6 in Ohio and Florida and 11 in Pennsylvania. These are all bigger margins than Obama received when he won all three states in 2008 -- Florida (2.8%), Ohio (4.7%). Pennsylvania(10%). It seems unlikely that Obama would be doing better in these states than he did 4 years ago. If you look at page 9 of the detailed results provided by the pollster (now linked to the New York Times and CBS for these state polls), you get the answer for the odd results:

Those surveyed revealed who they voted for in 2008. Here are the results by state (Page 9):

Florida: Obama 53%, McCain 40%

Ohio: Obama 53%, McCain 38%

Pennsylvania: Obama 54%, McCain 40%.

In other words, the bias towards Obama voters is 10% in Florida and Ohio, and 4% in Pennsylvania, compared to how people actually voted in these states in 2008.


These results are as valuable as the media that sponsored them. It is a shame that Quinnipiac, which was once respected, has thrown in with the propagandists.

Obama's Approval Rating Below 50% In 36 States
Image
I know I'm laughing!
Quote:
A majority of residents in 13 states and the District of Columbia approved of the job Barack Obama did as president during the first six months of 2012. His highest ratings by state were in Hawaii (63%) and Rhode Island (58%), in addition to the 83% approval from District of Columbia residents. In 16 states, his approval rating averaged below 40%, with residents of Utah, Wyoming, and Alaska least approving.

The 13 states and District of Columbia with majorities approving of Obama's job performance in the first half of 2012 is a slight increase from Obama's 2011 totals, as all 10 states with 50% or greater approval in 2011 remained at that level and were joined by Rhode Island, Washington state, and Minnesota. Additionally, Obama's approval rating fell just below the majority significant approval threshold in Michigan and Wisconsin, two key swing states this presidential election year. Six other states had approval ratings of 46% or 47%.

The 50% approval mark is because post-World War II incumbent presidents who have been above 50% job approval on Election Day were easily re-elected. Presidents with approval ratings below 50% have more uncertain re-election prospects. Historically, two presidents below 50% in their final approval rating before the election -- George W. Bush and Harry Truman -- won, and three, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and George H.W. Bush, lost.

By 47% To 37% Margin Voters Say Obama Policies Are "Extreme"
Image
Obama can thank the media for it not being significantly higher.

Quote:
Voters are more likely to believe Mitt Romney’s views are in the mainstream than extreme, but are evenly divided on President Obama’s views.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters shows that 51% regard Romney’s views as mainstream. Thirty-seven percent (37%) say it would be more accurate to describe the presumptive GOP nominee’s views as extreme.

Views of the president are more evenly divided. While 44% believe it’s accurate to describe President Obama’s views as mainstream, 47% describe his views as extreme.

Americans Shockingly Not Upbeat About Country’s Future In The Era Of Hope And Change, Only 32% Think Our Best Days Lie Ahead
Image
I think we’d be shocked how fast these numbers turn around once we vote this clown out of office.

Quote:
Nearly half of U.S. voters continue to feel the nation’s best days are already behind them.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 49% of Likely U.S. Voters think America’s best days are in the past. T hirty-two percent (32%) think the country’s best days still lie ahead, down five points from the previous survey. Another 19% are not sure.

GALLUP: OBAMA APPROVE SLIPS TO 43%

New Polls Show Obama With Growing Lead
By Edward McClelland

Friday, Aug 10, 2012

That Obama ad, with Mitt Romney singing “America the Beautiful” while the screen flashes a list of his offshore investments? Those demands from Democrats that Romney release his taxes from the last 10 years? They’re working.
Unable to brag about a strong economic recovering, President Obama is trying to win with a negative campaign, similar to the campaigns the Bush family ran against Michael Dukakis in 1988 and John Kerry in 2004. (Apparently, candidates from Massachusetts are easy to pick on.) As Bush Sr. did to Dukakis, Obama is attempting to portray Romney as unpatriotic and out of touch with ordinary Americans. As Bush Jr. did to Kerry, Obama is attacking Romney’s strongest resume line: in this case, his experience as a businessman.

According to two polls out Thursday, Obama has big leads over Romney -- in part because he’s driven up Romney’s unfavorable rating with the public. Fox News has Obama with a 49-40 lead. And if Fox News says Obama is winning, he must be winning. According to the network:
The president would take 49 percent of the vote compared to Romney's 40 percent in a head-to-head matchup if the election were held today, the poll found. Last month, Obama had a four percentage-point edge of 45 percent to 41 percent. This marks the second time this year the president has had a lead outside the poll’s margin of sampling error.


Obama’s advantage comes largely from increased support among independents, who now pick him over Romney by 11 percentage points. Some 30 percent of independents are undecided. Last month, Obama had a four-point edge among independents, while Romney had the advantage from April through early June.

The Obama campaign has spent heavily on advertising attacking Romney’s time at Bain Capital and his tax returns. And it appears to be working. Romney’s favorable rating dropped six percentage points since last month and now sits at 46 percent, down from 52 percent in mid-July. At the same time his unfavorable rating went up five points. Romney’s favorable rating has held steady among his party faithful, but it’s down eight percentage points among independents and seven points among Democrats.

CNN has Obama ahead by seven points, but it’s an even better poll for the President, because it shows him with the support of 52 percent of the voters -- above the magic 50 percent line that’s considered essential for an incumbent.

Lackluster: Obama Fundraising Event
in Chicago Sparsely Attended

Breitbart's Big Government, by Tony Lee


The Obama campaign cannot win reelection if his base is not excited. At a fundraiser for young professionals in his hometown of Chicago on Sunday, reports indicated that the attendance was less than impressive.

New York Times reporter Jodi Kantor tweeted that admission to the event was "only $51" but the room was just "half full." Her tweet got splashed on the Drudge Report, and the Obama campaign scrambled to respond. Kantor subsequently tweeted that just some of the tickets were $51,and that the campaign told her the event was actually sold out. Kantor then tweeted that even though the campaign claimed the event was sold out, the room was just half full.

Kantor tweeted: "Hmmm."

Kantor was denied access by the Obama administration when writing a book about Barack and Michelle Obama's marriage, and the Obama administration attacked the book before the book hit the bookshelves. Perhaps this has made Kantor into more of an objective reporter. Or perhaps the Obama campaign will say that they purposely limited access to this event, which is the excuse they have been making for their small crowd sizes. .

This Poll Is Another Terrible Sign For Paul Ryan And Mitt Romney

Brett LoGiurato|Aug. 13, 2012

Mitt Romney insisted Sunday night on "60 Minutes" that his new running mate, Paul Ryan, is qualified to serve as president if the need arose. But in a warning sign for the campaign, incumbent Vice President Joe Biden is seen as a far better choice than Ryan to serve as president if needed, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll.
