CNN polling director Keating Holland called the 61 percent who are in Obama's corner "a fairly robust number" but singled out as significant the size of the drop-off in the number of those hoping for his success as well as the fact that a plurality predicts his policies will likely fail.Pres. Obama seems to be one of the most vilified presidents the USA has ever had. My question is WHY??? What has he done wrong other than being the WRONG color? (Funny how he got into office in any event!!)
Lets just let the man do his job without bashing him with brick bats. If the general public now seems to hate him so much then impeach him! Otherwise, just shut up!
uuhhmm news flash...in the second term of the bush administration, everything fell apart. Bush's $80 billion deal to fund an ongoing war priceless. Government officials had their own jet service, each official had their own jet service c'mon. Banks were crying, any major company aided by the government was crying foul so the obama's vacation is like eating at mcdonald's, lets get it right people.

I would be interested in the design of the poll. Wording can be easily manipulated to skew the data collected, and by some of the other results, I question the design.

You are hearinbg only the Republican talking points. The people did not speak. The theives, that are stealing those things that we are entitled to, ran a better campaign. First they stole the money from our 401Ks. Now they want to deny us the SSI, Medicare and Medicaid that we have paid into. They are not giving up any of the tax money that pays their salary. Some of them did not have a job before getting elected on a platform that denies employment insurance payments. Wake up snrar. The President did not do these things. It is the right wing politicians

I know of no one that wants the Health Care Bill, the Dream Act, the war in Afganistan etc. So who is exactly being polled?
January 01 2011 at 11:58 PM Report abuse Permalink +5 rate up rate down ReplyWhat I am hoping for next year is that Obama and Michelle wil reimburse the AMerican People for all his many vactations (1.5 million and counting for hawaii, millions upon millions for Micheles trip to Ital - If Bush did this you all would be crucifying him and burning down his home, at least bush went to his own ranch). Lets see, that 1.5 million dollars of our tax money could have bailed out 30 americans with a 50,000 mortgage, could have provided food for over 100,000 americans in trouble this year. Lets hope this new congress stops the presidents vacations.. at least !!! lol

The republicans will threaten defeat and dismissal with every opportunity they can. I only hope the American people can remember and refer to our history and how the republicans tried to defeat Social Security in the 1930's and Medicare in the 1960's. I also hope that Americans will start to piece together that (generally speaking) history has shown republicans are not on the side of the poor and middle class in their own country!!!
