War on Women takes toll on Obama/approval down to 41%

[sealybobo]

Looking optomistically, if Obama has 50% approval, and there is a 3% margain of error, that means he has a 53% approval rating.

47.5 worst case scenerio. With 3% margain of error, that's 50.5% approval rating for Obama. That's another 4 years.

Even if Obama only has 47% approval rating, that is still enough to beat Romney or Santorum.

Just to pile on a little more...

Remember that big drop in approval numbers Barack Obama suffered over the weekend? You’re remembering a phantom.

The poll that got all the chatter going about Obama’s alleged drop was published on Monday by the New York Times. It found Obama’s approval rating at 41 percent, in polling taken from March 7-11.

But we now have two new polls, one from Pew and the other from Reuters, that have Obama at 50 percent. So what’s going on?

Here, via Pollster, is the wrap up of all the polling taken roughly during the same time period as the Times poll:

CBS/NYT — March 7-11 — 41%

Bloomberg — March 8-11 — 48%

Ipsos/Reuters — March 8-11 — 50%

ABC/WaPo — March 7-10 — 46%

Pew — March 7-11 — 50%

Gallup — March 10-12 — 47%

Rasmussen — March 11-13 — 47%

The Times poll is an outlier. The overall Pollster trend is now at around 47 percent — put all the polling together and the trend is either slightly up or slightly down over the last month, depending on how one reads the data. (The key variable is whether you want your trend line to overreact or underreact to each poll — whether you place more or less emphasis on the most recent polls — something you can change by adjusting Pollster's "smoothing" function.)

Either way, there's no getting around the fact that the big Obama polling drop last week never happened. Never happened.

He is such a drama queen.

A Drama Queen afraid to make a friendly wager on the Election, it would appear. Who knew he would really be so uncertain and timid.

I wouldn't touch your filthy money. God knows where your hands have been.

You are the one who seems to have the anal fixation.

I just heard a soundbite on Rush that had a liberal media person asking a guest if he thought that the polls "were broken" as an excuse for Obamas low poll numbers! LOL

GOP: Old, white and in trouble, poll says

19% of Republicans won’t vote or will vote for Obama if Romney or Santorum are nominee

Gallup: Romney, Santorum Stir Less Enthusiasm Than McCain Did

Does this mean those 19% would vote only for Gingrich as the GOP nominee?
