Re: "So is this your apology Buddy? You seem to be acknowledging that Obama's approval ratings had dropped like a rock."
Have you lost your *mind*, Peter?
Or do you just have a REALLY REALLY dry sense of humor????????
(Pulling all our legs, eh?)
Latest Gallup poll clearly shows that his popularity has increased yet again (67% positive again, near all-time highs for the admin.), just picking up 15 further points of REPUBLICAN support.
That... and the charts clearly show an almost ruler-flat high level of overall support... posting daily averages in the mid to low end of the 60's....
PRINCETON, NJ -- In the days immediately after Barack Obama's nationally televised address to Congress on Tuesday night, his public support has increased significantly to 67% in Feb. 24-26 Gallup Daily polling, and is now just two points below his term high. This comes on the heels of a term-low 59% reported by Gallup on Tuesday.
Obama's approval rebound is due to increased support from all political groups, but especially from independents and Republicans, whose support had been waning. Over the past week, independents' approval of Obama dropped from 62% to 54%, but is now back to 62%. There has been a sharp increase in support among Republicans, from 27% to 42%. Democrats' support for Obama was already extremely high at 86%, but even this has climbed slightly, to 90% in the latest polling.
(Perhaps it's time for *you* to 'apologize' for being unable to read a chart... or for being silly enough to imagine and claim that bouncing between 67% support and 59% support, and back to 67% support is analogous to "dropping like a rock"? Not too many rocks fly UPWARDS like that. :-) |
