New Low of 26% Approve of Obama on the Economy

[binnie]

I don't doubt that the poll is 'accurate'. My point is, so what.

If only '26% of economists' approved of Obama's handling of the economy, it would be significant (because they know what they're talking about).

The fact that only '26% of voters - most of whom don't really understand the theory, mathematics and mechanisms of the economy - disprove of Obama's handling of it' isn't all that significant, is it?

If you spend your life chasing public opinion, you'll never get anything done.

lol. It's significant to me because I want him voted out of office. Other than that it has no significance

45% strongly disapprove of the way he is doing his job as president. That's a big number.

There are other inetersting things in that as well. Like only 20% think govt anti poverty programs reduce poverty.

Many of that 45% don't understand what he can and cannot effect.

The captain always gets blamed even if the rusty hull of the ship wasn't exactly his fault. If you want to be president, get ready to get pissed on.

Fine but think twice before throwing the ships captain overboard and appointing the retarded stowaway that usually spends her day picking her ass and eating it in the hold.
