Can Obama Really Win With These Poll Numbers?

Obama Reacts Swiftly To Poll Numbers SC Can Obama Really Win With These Poll Numbers?

At 46% approval, Gallup’s new numbers show Barack Obama is still under the 50% he needs for re-election.  With the exception of Harry Truman, no president has been re-elected with a sub 50% approval rating. The rest of Gallup’s message holds more bad news for Obama.

He hasn’t averaged 50% approval for a full month since last May when we killed bin Laden.  His previous full month of 50% approval was February 2010.

Gallup reports that the much talked about BIG lead Obama has with women really isn’t very big at all. In 2008, Obama won women 56/43. Al Gore and John Kerry both won women (with 54% and 51% respectively), and both lost anyway.

Today, Gallup says Obama’s approval with women is at 49%; this is off 7 points since 2008.

In 2008, Obama won 18 – 29 year olds 66/31; they now approve of Obama at just a 54% rate. He won Hispanics 67/31, but that’s down to 55% approval. Although only 45% of those over 65 voted for Obama, that’s down to 41%. Working your “retirement” as a Walmart greeter will do that.

Overall, Democrat support has fallen 3 points to 83%, which is important because it is moving in the wrong direction. His support among independents has shrunk to 42%, a 10 point slip from 2008.

Obama has even lost 6 points (95%, now 89%) among blacks.  Of course, this number will balloon to 100% on Election Day, but how can this be helpful to his re-election? The problem with this number and the numbers for 18 to 29 year olds is enthusiasm to vote. Among both groups, it is down sharply.

In March 2008, 78% of blacks were enthusiastic to vote, and 76% of young voters were enthusiastic to vote. Today, only 48% of both groups are enthusiastic. This is why the Left is carrying on the Zimmermen/Martin circus.

Obama captured 43% of the overall white vote in 2008; now, Gallup reports that his approval among whites (the largest voting bloc) is 37%.

Obama has lost ground with every group, is 7 points off with women, and under 50% in terms of overall approval.

Maybe Gallup needs to glue the happy face mask on Obama’s campaign. That seems like the only way it will stick.

    Well, all I have to say as that we better have some hones poll watchers and take care of voter fraud from state to state because it's my understanding that Mickey Mouse, prison inmates, illegal immigrants and dead people will be voting this next election AGAIN! EVERYBODY VOTES, if you are not registered to vote, please do so because if you don not vote you are part of the problem!

  2. oldtimered says:

    It appears we will elect a natural born US citizen with a real birth certificate. Even Americans can understand when they are being set up and deceived. What a disgrace we have become because of our lack of research into candidates real objectives.
    Pray for the USA.

      The Main Stream Media has done a great job of helping hide all of the skeletons in Obama's closets! He has had money from the likes of Soros to help hide his past, Pelosi, Reid and the dems in congress also helped keep the truth about this poser from being found out!

    well, the first comment I posted apparently did not meet with the skewed political bent of this racist site, so it was deleted. Shocked, I am.

  5. VirgoVince says:

    It's got nothing to do with 'winning,' it's all about Voter Fraud, corruption at the polls with hacked computerized machines and voter fear and apathy!! Don't forget outsourcing vote count!!!!
    If you want to give him a winner's title, how about 'Worst LIAR, fraud and imposter of a man!!"

    There's still time for many states to remove him from their ballots, but will it matter?? NOT much!!
    WHY is he still breathing????

  6. trackfodder says:

    With all the illegals, dead people, criminals etc voting, plus the Spaniards counting the overseas votes and the possibility of the Dim oc rats running a 3rd candidate we are dead meat unless we get lucky and get both houses of Congress and impeach him..

    • OBAMA says:

      Why exactly would a Democratic majority Senate want to impeach Obama? Furthermore, name a reason why they would want to impeach him. Even in the House there wouldn't be nearly enough people willing to impeach him for his so called "crimes".

  7. Guest says:

    This country is more divided than it has ever been, with Obama and crew stoking the fires of racism, NO ONE is better off than they were 4 years ago, EVERYONE is uncertain about what the future holds because of this administrations policies and spending….I cannot fathom this liar, theif and cheat being re-elected!

    Obama is Americas only hope. Those who disagree are stupid and are only influencing the stereotype that all Americans are stupid, if Obama isn't elected again then I hope there is a God who loves you guys- cause otherwise you are all stuffed.

  10. JacktheFAC says:

    With the way that Caesar Hussein Obama has rigged the election counting (that is, if we even have an election), shows that he really doesn't care about his poll numbers. He is going to win by hook or crook, mostly by crook, as he always works.

  11. Bob says:

    Without voter fraud & a syncophant media, he'd never have won in the first place.

  12. Energene says:

    In a honest election, with photo id's, Obama would not have a prayer of getting elected.
    Alas, the Republicans will have to vote in large numbers to overcome rampant voter fraud in most of the states.
    If you are a registered Republican voter it is very important you show up to the polls!!!!

  13. Dustin says:

    This …whatever it is is going to make damn sure Obongo gets re elected at any cost. Aint a damn thing you or I can do about it. Oh Im still going to vote and pray and pray some more. Hope y'all do the same.

    History says that this man cannot be reelected with the poll numbers he has, but do not put anything past this common criminal. He and his gang of thugs and thieves will do, say, or cause anything to happen that will get him reelected. The damage Gingrich and Santorum did to Romney may turn the election. Gingrich is continuing to run his foulmouth for no good reason. I think he has lost his faculties, or he is on Obama's payroll. Rally every vote possible to defeat this cancer in the White House.

      you know the CERTAIN TYPES want to VOTE for a paycheck instead of work for the paycheck.

  16. Captain America says:

    These fake poll numbers are way to high, just like the census department artificially inflated the number of h0m0sexuaIs form an actually reported 0.55% of the population up to 1%, these fake polls are the same ones that said Ronald Reagan couldn't win in 1980 no doubt trying to keep Republicans from voting, but he had a land slide victory.
    Has anyone out there met these mythical 46% of the population that is going to vote for B0, I don't know of anyone?

  17. He also has several options: give amnesty to ALL illegals, have a mass swearing in ceremony to make them legal, provide them with free transportation to the polls, furnish free food and refreshments for his voters.
    I also believe there are too many people who have been bought, bribed, blackmailed or threatened and more on the list. If this statement is not true this illegal, phony, lying POTUS would not be in office. He does not care about Congress, the Constitution, the Supreme Court or the people!
    If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million illegal's – and they vote – then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.
    I hope to be gone when the Muslims take over. This will happen sooner than I orignally thought.
    I just post my thoughts. Do not take my word for anything.
    Do your own research. Seek the truth! Do not listen to the Media!!!

  18. Cicuta says:

    It depends on how stupid people are and believe me…There are plenty of stupid people here in the USA and the proof to that is that Obama is sitting in the White House putting the screws to everyone and still there are lots of people who will vote for him. The question is: What can we do if stupid people vote for that ^%$#@…not a darn thing.

    • Kellia says:

      Yes , use your voting rights while we still have them,( even though they might not be counted, Sadly) But I am WRITING in Dr. Ron Paul for 2012!!!!

  19. Darn it . This did not come out as expected. This was my first entry.

    We need to realize Blacks, (no matter what he does) Democrats, Liberals, Catholics, Unions and it's members, college students, especially the young females, gays, Muslims, people who are recieving entitlements, now that OUR taxpayer money is put on a debit card to spend however they chose, (They also recieve FREE cell phones!) illegals, Hispanics and there are women who vote for the man they would like in their bed. I bet there are people think that the tax payer's money on their debit card is the Obama money they were promised.

    It boggles my mind how this man can constantly say he will do something then do the opposite and people will still believe what he says and defend him.

  22. Gary C says:

    Unfortunately republicans are obviously not serious about winning the 2012 election. If they were serious they would not be in the process of running their worst candidate. The nomination of romney is just absolutely disgusting. I predict that romney will lose by a wider margin than McCain.. By running romney they are denying real Conservatives a clear choice in November and that will give obama the win he needs. I expect obama and his machine to chew his opposition up and spit him out as totally undesirable. romney has few defenses to put up and they will not be enough to win or even be close to a win. romney is now the front runner by default. He otherwise could not sew up the nomination because he is very weak. So far romney has been treated with kid gloves. Obama will not go easy on him and romney will make obama smell like a rose. It is so sad to see the republicans self destruct at a time we needed to be strong.

    • OBAMA says:

      Hopefully, Obama wins. The only Republican I felt comfortable supporting was Huntsman, but he dropped out.

  23. madhatter15 says:

    can he even run is what the question should be, he is illegal, a usurper, why are we even asking this question, it should be how soon can we get him out. Obonzo is now talkin gabout starting businesses in Libya, I sincerely hope that is not the reason we killed all of those people innocent and otherwise, adults and their children, Gadafi and his family so that Obama can start businesses. Africans have been talking for weeks in the African press about all the things America is going ot do for them, A mr. Munoz wiht the EPA I think it is, is talking aobut regulating the oceans and all kinds of thigns, , what didn't Obama run for President in his own country, mayube he coudl have done some goo there, he isn't doing any here. I know one thing, I am giving fair warning, I am buyin ga house and if any of those little worms from the uN and agenda 21 come to my house they will get a greeting like they never had before, and I love to talk, we 'll get the ball rulling on this crap. once and for all. Obama , go home.

  24. BenUSMC says:

    It makes me sick to think that the "pres" will even come close to being re-elected. I hope the poll numbers
    are valid and either stay where they are or they get even worse for Obie. It looks like Romney is going to
    be the Republican choice and I hope he beats OIbies a$$ into the ground. America wake up! Get out
    and vote for ABO (anyone but obama).

  25. Redfeather says:

    He is gleefully rubbing our noses, and the Supreme Court's noses, in his open and arrogant offences — HE KNOWS he has the election rigged with illegals, dead people, acorn registrants, mickey mouse, Dallas Cowboys, etc., etc., etc. Just like any dictator, he will comit the most horrible crimes against his own people, hold a fixed election, and then then say, "SEE, the people LOVE me."

  27. rose says:

    We all should be protesting loud and long about the votes being counted in Spain. We Americans are well able to count our own votes. We should demand a photo I D and a paper trail. I don't believe any poll, as I believe they just say what they want us to believe. I am 86, and have never in my life been called by any poll. i am not enthused about 'Romney, but will vote for him rather than split the vote, because that is the only way we can eliminate the current administration. That is if the voting is legal and fair. Rand is good, but is unable to win the election, and voting a write in vote for him will only give the democrats more votes.

  29. Betsy K. Larsen says:

    If there is such a thing as “perfectly horrible” then this is Perfectly Horrible! First, we have an illegal sitting in our once “white” house, and the election process is murkey at best, and now, we have our votes about to be “counted” overseas. And in a strongly mu SLIME country at that! If Spain were what she once were, Catholic, we might just stand a chance. But Spain is not the country that Spain once was. No country is anymore, this filth, this SLIME, Is slIME has touched and infected every nation on earth today, and nowhere is safe from it’s disease, not even our own beloved America! We have one of those boils, cancers, sitting right smack in our Capitol, and he has infected, and infested every inch of our nation with his filthy disease. He is the Main Disease, and as we all know, Diseases must be eradicated in order to cleanse the public of danger of infection by said Diseases!!!! It has been said that a bullet would put an end to this Disease, but the problem there is that if this were to be done, then this Disease would only spread, known as Martyrdom…………he would then be lifted up as a Dead Hero to those who once supported him and his filthy ideologies. So to me, that would not be the solution for our biggest problem ever, rather, we need to somehow get this Disease out of our lives another way. Voting was our best shot at this, and may still be, but we need to find a CLEAN way to get this done. And the only way I can see is to make the REPUKES do what they need, or should do in order to get this mission accomplished. Now, how to do that? What, a Million Person March on every capitol in every state in the Union, or does anyone have any suggestions? Something has GOT TO BE DONE! We cannot have our votes tallied in Spain! Or anywhere else! They need to be done here, and done honestly, and these black good for nothing trouble making sons of bitches need to be immediately arrested and thrown into a cell underground, and SILENCED! Yes, a lot needs to be done………but I am very afraid that nothing will be done. In order for anything to be done, the American people will have to first ACT, and get up off their asses and make sure that it does get done, FORCE OUR REPS TO DO THEIR JOBS, however that can be done, and follow through, all the way to the polls, and beyond if necessary! But from the sounds and looks of it, unless we actually DO something drastic, I fear that we are indeed in dire danger of another four and beyond, years and years, of RULE UNDER THIS PEICE OF SHIT!

    • lwchapman says:

      Dear Betsy, I hate to ruin your day even more. However it has been reported either on this site or another of my news sites that the Spanish company that will be doing the tabulation of our votes is owned partially or totatly by Mr. George Soros himself. Now that should build your confidence about a fair election even more. Also, as I understand, once the vote has been caste a virus in the software will turn every third or fourth vote into one for our dear leader if that vote was not already for him. At the end of the voting the virus will delete itself so that there will be no trace. Also, votes from the districts in the U.S.A that have used the computer to vote will be cleansed so that you will have no way of a recount or clearing disputes. I will let your imagination toy with all the possibilities. In the way of a disclaimer, it is fact that Soros is owner or part owner of the Spanish firm. The rest of my reply is from un authenticated sources. However, they have proven to be reliable in the past. Thank you for listening to me. I am going to cut and paste this reply into the "Post a new comment" box just in case people do not bother to read my reply to your comment.

  30. Louisiana Lady says:

    Of course Obama can win, regardless of poll numbers. He has already taken strong steps to steal the election by having Eric Holder attack any attempt for voter ID by every state that tries it. I read yesterday that a Spanish firm will count the votes, which is such an outrage it is hard to imagine that our Congress would allow it. By the way, where are the Republicans? Are they comatose or complicit in what is going on? Folks, we are in big trouble here, and it doesn't look like any heroic rescue is about to happen.

  31. Joan says:

    If Obama is counting on the women of America , besides all the homeless, college kids bribes, fraud, dead people and of course all the corrupt liberals, then I certainly hope the females that vote for him know what the Muslim men think of women….if Obama gets re-elected this country will be turned to muslim and you know if you don't conform then you get your head cut off and everyone knows what the muslim women go through….all thiese Obama idolizers will be wearing the muslim women clothes and bowing down to the muslim men.
