So much for Obama's efforts to sell his mess of a healthcare bill...his efforts have been as ineffective as his bid for the olympics and his campaigning for Jon Corzine and Martha Coakley. :rolleyes:

Good thing Obama says he disregards polls; He wouldn't like these

Now that Obama has signed his beloved healthcare legislation and despite his continued stumping for the measure, CBS News finds a) the stumping has been ineffective, b) most Americans don't like the bill (53%), c) many expect the quality of care to decrease while costs continue to increase and d) few see anything in it for them. Other than that, it's a huge public relations success.
As another result of the passage and preceding rancorous healthcare debate, Rasmussen Reports finds that 53% of Americans now say they trust Republicans more with this traditionally Democratic issue, while 37% still trust that party.
As yet another result, Obama's overall approval rating has now hit the lowest point since he....

...took office -- 44% -- which is down five points since before he signed the healthcare bill and down 24 points since his poll high last April.
On healthcare alone, the president's disapproval rating is 55% and approval just above one-in-three (34%).
LA Times

And a significant Republican shift came on the issue of the economy. (Obama and the Dems seem to be tone deaf to the American People who stated loud and clear repeatedly the most important issue was the economy and jobs.) Even CNN is giving it straight:

CNN Poll: Democrats lose edge on economy

All the fighting over healthcare the last year while so many Americans said their top concern was the economy has now resulted in Democrats losing their large edge on the economy. Last summer, CNN/Opinion Research found, 52% of Americans knew Democrats would handle the economy better than Republicans (39%).
Today it's flipped to 48-45 in the GOP's favor.

No one is very interested in your prognostications. As Sargon has correctly pointed out in this thread, you couldn't correctly call the election of '08 when it was less than 2 months away and it was a plain as day who was going to win it.

It's still 2 and a half years until 2012 and here you are again with the same old baiting and hate and stupidity. Don't you get bored?

Obama is down in his job approval ratings. That is a poll of the President's job performance that is done on a continual basis for all Presidents.

The Dems are down in the polls on the issues important to Americans today...and the issues that will determine the outcome of the midterm elections.

You seem to be confused by bringing up 2012...or you just telegraghed your hand that you are scared. :rolleyes:

Actually Trinitroll, you're the frightened one.
If it wasn't for the fact that Republicans are not well poised to take back majorities in the House & Senate in November, you wouldn't be here creating 5-10 threads a week about how Obama, Democrats and Health Care Reform suck. Your continued political spamming is a paranoidal attempt to "fight the enemy" in your pathetic little mind.

You're scared that the articulate negro is gonna win again. You're upset that nothing has been able to derail his progress so badly that a candidate with a vagina has to step in. Just like your birther threads and that lovely Electoral Map showing McCain in the lead last year, this will become another one of your countless threads where history makes you look stupid. No major shifts of power in Congress will happen this year or in 2012, and if you are any indication of the opposition then Biden will probably win in 2016. Now, THAT would be a feat!

Don't bother responding... because I already know what you're gonna say and it's fuckin' pathetic. :rolleyes:

All the polls are fresh and new. :rolleyes:

They were fresh and new when you stated this thread too, and you were STILL WRONG in the long run. What's good about winning an insignificant battle when you continually lose the war? Don't answer that, troll... everyone is sick of your bullshit.

What would I be wrong about in the long run? You sound ridiculous. The current polls are being discussed in the political forum. Just because you don't like them because they are down for your candidate does not invalidate the polls. Just because you are predicting with your crystal ball that all the polls are wrong doesn't mean anything in a political discussion. :rolleyes:

why hasn't trinity been permanently banned? Last time I checked, ToS stated that only posting on one board (politics in its case) was a violation...so is instigating/flaming/trolling. This person contributes nothing to this thread. Why is she/it here still. Makes me wonder

Right. :rolleyes:
