52% Want Obama Voted Out of Office
For the first time, the poll found that a majority of adults, 52 percent, said Obama should be voted out of office while 43 percent said he deserves another term. The numbers mark a reversal since last May, when 53 percent said Obama should be re-elected while 43 percent said he didn’t deserve four more years.
Obama’s overall job approval stands at a new low, with 44 percent approving and 54 percent disapproving. The president’s standing among independents is worse: Thirty-eight percent approve while 59 percent disapprove. Among Democrats, the president holds steady with an approval rating of 78 percent while only 12 percent of Republicans approve of the job he’s doing.
Between May and now 10% changed their mind about Obama’s performance.
And who are the 12% of Republicans who approve of the job Obama is doing?
A perfect opportunity for the GOPniks to blow.
“And who are the 12% of Republicans who approve of the job Obama is doing?”
Dede Scozzafava, Mike Castle, Arlen Spectre, Charlie Crist, Lisa Murkowski… lots and lots of “Republicans” support Obama.
What concerns me more is that 78% of Dems approve of the job he is doing. Really? Based on what? Certainly not results. That is just downright scary. It means that 78% of 45% of the population, or 35% of the entire population, is just-plain-nuts. 35%! Add in 12% of the 40% Republicans, that’s 5% more! 40%! Add some few independents, and we find Obama’s die-hard base of 41-43%. Insane! That is roughly 100,000,000 nutty, adult Americans!
Can we even survive this? Really, really scary.
And that is what Obama will get…41%.
My unscientific rule-of-thumb is to add 10% to any poll favoring the Right and subject 10% from any poll favoring the left. Seems to work pretty well and accounts for that “12% of Republicans who approve of the job Obama is doing.”
These polls mean nothing. I have very little faith in American voters. In November, let me be perfectly clear, Obama will be sweet talking, Marvin Gaye songs will be playing in the background of voting booths with candlelight and strawberries dipped in chocolate and everyone will get weak in the knees and re-elect him.

Paraphrasing Churchill during a bad time, “….never, never, never, give in…”
A meaningless statistic.
Instead, here’s a statistic that should send shudders down the back of any American taxpayer: 52 million. That’s the number of American voters that bought into Obama’s hopey-changey nonsense. 52 million out of a population of 320 million, or less than 17 percent.
And out of the 52 million votes that Obama got in 2008, a large percentage of those were from voters who paid no federal taxes. In other words, they had no “skin in the game”. What this country needs is voting system that makes allowances for the voter’s contributions to the country’s welfare. Whether it be taxes paid or military service.
