Forum Obama Approval Rating!

[Miles]

Obama's Forum approval rating is -14.

Or at least that's how Rasmussen would spin it.

[WhyteRain]

Best President since Carter.

But that's not saying much, considering the stinkers who have ruled the roost in recent decades.

I agree Carter's better than Obama.  Like Carter, Obama couldn't lead a dog with a pork chop, but at least Carter had some decent policies (economic deregulation, medium range nuclear missiles in Europe, aid to the anti-Sandanista forces in Nicaragua, etc.)

[WhyteRain]

Approve; best president since Lyndon Johnson.

Wow, even better than Carter, eh?

Anyway, I have to agree with you that LBJ was better than Obama, if only because he always got substantial numbers of Republicans to vote for even his most controversial bills.

[Beet]

Approve.

A lot of things he could have done better to get legislation threw and a lot of things he successfully accomplished

[Napoleon]

I'm not voting for him.

[LastVoter]

I'm not voting for him.

The moderate hero is not voting for a moderate hero? This is an interesting development.

[President von Cat]

I'm not voting for him.

What are you seriously gonna vote for Romney?

Whats with all these New Englanders that love Romney so much? Maybe you guys think he is "one of you", but he isn't. I'm from Massachusetts, I know what a bad governor Romney was. And so would the rest of the country, had he opted to run for re-election in 2006 instead of tee-ing up for a two year, failed presidential campaign.

He saddled my state with a huge debt upon leaving and was almost dead last in terms of job creation. And don't gimme that bullshti about how the unemployment rate fell during his tenure. It was 2003-2007, the national economy was gearing into peak bubble mode. The rate was going down in lots of places, but in Romney's Massachusetts you barely felt it.

[morgieb]

I'm not voting for him.

Serious?

[Donerail]

I'm not voting for him.

Smart man.

[Napoleon]

Lol I never said I would vote for Romney. Seriously guys?

[Napoleon]

I'm not voting for him.

The moderate hero is not voting for a moderate hero? This is an interesting development.

I hate moderate heroes. Having even a basic understanding of economics doesn't make one a moderate hero.

[Redalgo]

I slightly approve but, as with Napoleon, do not intend to vote for him at this point.

[Averroës Nix]

Somewhat disapprove. I'll probably cast a protest vote for Johnson.

[Maxwell]

Disapprove. He's embarrassing on civil liberties.

[Oakvale]

Just plain approve, if we're in a vaccum - that is to say, not considering the alternatives (President Hillary Clinton or John McCain? Or, this time around, Mitt Romney? *vomits*), strongly approve otherwise.

[Purch]

I'm not voting for him.

Not voting for Obama doesn't mean you'll vote for Romney. When it comes between choosing between two ineffective politicians I vote for neither. It's not like this is an election between Chris Christie and Hilary Clinton, it's an election between Obama and Romney in which neither of them have shown the kind of toughness to be effective within the hardball politics of Washington or the kind of vision that makes me confident to entrust them with the next 4 years.
